Let's Play Video Games has heard from anonymous sources that CD Projekt Red's Geralt of Rivia from The Witcher franchise will appear in Bandai Namco's fighter Soulcalibur VI.

The site heard from its sources a few weeks ago, and its belief was strengthened when CD Projekt Red community lead, Marcin Momot, sent out the teasing tweet below.

LPVG also points out that Bandai Namco and CD Projekt Red have an existing relationship – the former distributes The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt in some territories around the world.

Soul Calibur VI comes out this year, and you can see it in action in these video clips.

What if Geralt was going to step out of the @witchergame for the very first time to make an appearance in one of the upcoming games later this year? pic.twitter.com/dMTn1Im6HD — Marcin Momot (@Marcin360) March 6, 2018

Our Take

The pieces are certainly in place for this to be true, and the series has a history of guest fighters from other franchises, like Assassin's Creed's Ezio in Soulcalibur V, among others.
