![]() Based on the Polish book series by Andrzej Sapkowski, which inspired three video games of increasing quality, Netflix’s The Witcher starred Henry Cavill as Geralt of Rivia, a travelling monster hunter who spends his days just trying to make a living in a scary, bizarre world. In a faithful adaptation of Sapkowski’s “A Grain of Truth,” The Witcher season 2 story opener will see Geralt start on his journey to becoming a father figure to the young princess while also encountering several prominent characters from the original Witcher story, including the cutthroat Nivellen and Vereena, the vampire. Beyond its first new episode, what to expect from The Witcher season 2's story will likely arrive as an adapted re-telling of Sapkowski’s Blood of Elves, which continues to take place in Kaer Morhen, the old fortress where The School of the Wolf trains Ciri as she plants her feet and fights back against the evil pursuing her.Whether you were a gamer, a book reader, or simply a lover of convoluted high fantasy television, chances are you, along with apparently 76 million other people (according to Netflix’s mighty suspicious new ratings report), deeply enjoyed the first season of The Witcher, the streaming service’s first big-budget fantasy series. The Witcher season 2 story is confirmed, via Netflix Geeked, to begin with Geralt and Ciri's journey to Geralt's childhood home of Kaer Morhen, the Witcher fortress.

Notably, season 1 is split into three different timelines: Yennefer's, Geralt's, and Ciri's. The first season is primarily based on the first two collections of Witcher stories: The Sword of Destiny and The Last Wish, and also touches upon the series' first novel, Blood of Elves. The Witcher is closely based on Sapkowski's books, and season 1 concludes with the Battle of Sodden Hill, which marks the end of the first Northern War. ![]() Here's everything we know so far about The Witcher season 2, including its release date, characters, story, and how it links to Netflix's animated Witcher movie Nightmare of the Wolf. ![]() As dark forces close on Ciri and her destiny, The Witcher season 2 is bound to double down on the creature-led viscera and action that made its first installment so compelling. With its lavish budget and the DCEU's Superman himself leading the cast, The Witcher is clearly a major priority for Netflix, so it's no surprise that a second season was green-lit before the first was even released.

All three become swept up in politics and war as the kingdom of Nilfgaard advances across the land, aiming to conquer the entire Continent. Set in a fantasy world called the Continent, season 1 of The Witcher divides its focus between Geralt, a sorceress called Yennefer of Vengerberg (Anya Chalotra), and Ciri (Freya Allan), a young princess with an important destiny.
