Does Ciri Appear in Blood and Wine Witcher 3?

Ciri appears in Blood and Wine, the second expansion of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, but her appearance is dependent on the player’s choices in the base game, specifically regarding romance options with Triss or Yennefer. If the player chooses not to romance either Triss or Yennefer, or if they romance both, Ciri will visit Geralt at Corvo Bianco in the epilogue of Blood and Wine.
