Witcher Inspired Environment
Entering the Witche's Bog

Entering the Witche's Bog

My team and I set out to complete a Witcher-Inspired environment in only 3 weeks using Unreal Marketplace assets, and these are the results! Along with my team, I took ownership of the Cemetery path of this scene. I did everything from landscape shaping and painting, blockout, design, key lighting and architectural kitbashing. Drawing inspiration from the Witcher's lore, we used medieval and gothic architecture to achieve the look of this scene.

On top of that, I wanted to go beyond just this path and create my own little story and crevice in this environment. I made a side path towards the witch's den drawing inspiration from the Crones in The Witcher and Crookback Bog. I thought since our main story was about a Styga rampaging over a town and making its way towards a church, I'd add a little side quest where you MIGHT need to make a visit to see the Crones... spooky.

I wrote a full blogpost where I go a bit more in-detail about how I crafted this cemetery path and the Witch's Bog:
