Modder ‘Fandera’ has released a new cool mod for The Witcher 3 that adds a new questline for Ciri, as well as a new region to explore. Inspired by The Witcher 4 Cinematic Reveal Trailer, the mod adds the Kingdom of Kovir and Poviss region to the game.

The story focuses on Ciri not as a legend, but as a person who underwent witcher mutations and was forced to live with their consequences.

This is a really cool mod that adds new free content to the game. As such, everyone who still plays The Witcher 3 should give it a go.

The mod takes between 45 minutes and 1.5 hours to complete. To get the proper experience, you’ll need the Next-Gen version, as well as the Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine expansions. The mod also requires the latest version of the Custom Player Characters mod and the Community Patch.

Those interested can download the mod from this link. At the end of the article, you can also find a video for it. This 10-minute demonstration video shows the new region and a bit of combat. So, be sure to watch it as it can give you an idea of what you can expect from it.

You can launch “Dawn over Kovir” from an old The Witcher 3 save or by selecting “New Game” -> “Dawn over Kovir Only.” To get to Kovir and start playing as Ciri, follow the quest “One More Thing”.

Speaking of The Witcher 3 Next-Gen, you can also download some other cool mods for it. For example, there is a really cool first-person mod. The Characters Reworked Project is another interesting mod that improves the quality of over 100 characters. Let’s also not forget this mod that lets you kill most in-game NPCs. Then we have this mod that overhauls the game’s combat with better animations, better targeting, and new dodging mechanics.

In July 2024, we shared mods that restored the boat races and added 15 new quests. A modder has also restored the reputation system that CDPR cut from the game. Plus, there is a cool fan expansion, based on the original book “The Last Wish”.

In December 2023, we shared this mod that restores content that was cut from all previous The Witcher games. Then, in February 2024, we shared a mod that attempted to remove the fake “hero” light from the game’s cut-scenes. There is also this mod that allows you to explore a part of the world from the first The Witcher game in TW3. Oh, and don’t forget this mod that allows you to ride a Griffin. Or how about this Sekiro-inspired combat mod?

Another must-have mod is the Online Multiplayer Mod. This mod lets you play the entire game with your friends, complete quests, and explore the world.

We also have some mods for those playing with Ray Tracing. The RTX Mirrors Mod adds proper reflections to the game’s mirrors. Then we have this mod that improves the fire effects via Ray Tracing Global Illumination. Plus, this mod fixes the Ray Tracing bleach issues.

Enjoy and stay tuned for more!
