The most creepy and detailed, even brave players can get confused when they first meet them.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has fantastic monsters that will take your breath away. Today we will tell you about the best monsters in the game.
When you are dealing with the world of fantasy and magic, you will surely come across amazing creatures and many monsters. They make the game original and interesting. Fight against an impressive, detailed and detailed monster much more interesting to experience than killing another skeleton, zombie or wild animal. The Witcher 3 I’ve never been stingy with interesting monsters, and here are 5 of the best of them.
Gargoyle
Gargoyles have undergone radical design changes since their introduction in The Witcher 2: Assassin of Kings, and they definitely look a lot better. Although, as expected, they are made of stone, these monsters don’t look like regular gargoyleswhich you might expect. They are more like stone golems with solemn faces.
There is something eerie and unsettling about the serene faces of gargoyles, especially when combined with their large, clumsy bodies. The design is definitely catchy and works well in the game, especially when combined with spectacular animations.
Igosha
Undoubtedly Igosha’s design was made very competently, but it turned out to be extremely frightening and repulsive. This is one of the monsters that remain in the memory of players long after they have finished the game. Geralt encounters a monster during the Family Matters quest. The story of this monster is based on a creature from Polish folklore.
They can be turned into benevolent spirits called churas. To do this, you need to perform an elven ritual, give the baby a name and perform the ritual properly.
Leshy
Goblin is one of the most recognizable enemies in The Witcher 3, and he appeared frequently in splash screens and other promotional images prior to the game’s release. These creatures are formidable forest spirits that can summon other monsters to help them in battle, such as wolves.
Leshy’s design is pretty attractive and definitely memorable. Its tree-like appearance was chosen by designers not only for show. Goblin can bury its tree limbs in the ground to control the roots of plants located around. As a result, they attack Geralt.
Griffins
Griffins are certainly not the original monsters, but The Witcher franchise changed these beasts and made them look a little different than what gamers usually expect. It is known that in the general canon they have the body of a lion, but the head and wings of an eagle.
The version of the griffins from The Witcher changes the usual stereotype by combining the front legs with the wings, as well as making the lion and eagle mix stronger – the mane becomes feather. As a result, the monster looks like a mixture of the canon griffin and harpy, which makes it much more effective.
Witches from Krivoukhovy Marshes
The trio of witches (Spinner, Whisperer and Cook), also known as “Mistresses of the Forest,” is the highlight of the third movement. Geralt meets three witches in a quest of the same name. They usually communicate with the outside world through a magic tapestry or through their servant. These monsters are an important part of the plot, because two of them will be killed personally by Ciri, and the latter will die at the hands of Geralt if the player finishes the plot with a bad ending.
The final concept of the witches was influenced by the Greek Moira, Baba Yaga and the strange sisters from Shakespeare’s Macbeth. The design of the three witches is highly detailed and showcases many of the cruel and perverse sides of their nature.
