Overview
Kovir is the first major region presented for The Witcher IV. CD Projekt Red and Epic Games used it as the setting for the 2025 Unreal Engine 5 technical demonstration, following Ciri and Kelpie across rugged terrain toward a populated settlement.
The landscape combines alpine geography, thick woodland, and coastal development. Valdrest provides the clearest look at the region's settlement design, market activity, and population density.
