The Witcher 3 adaptation in the vein of fantasy movies from the 1980s

Tech enthusiasts continue to explore potential screen adaptations of beloved franchises, with their sights now set on the Witcher series. A striking concept trailer for a Witcher 3: Wild Hunt adaptation, created by the Sora AI YouTube channel, has recently emerged.

Styled to evoke the aesthetic of 1980s cinema, this project leverages the power of neural networks. The trailer features many recognizable faces from the Witcher universe, including Geralt, Yennefer, Ciri, Triss Merigold, Regis, Dijkstra, and Priscilla, among others. While some stylistic liberties have been taken with their appearances, their identities remain readily apparent.

Recently, the developers of The Witcher 3 hinted at plans to incorporate Triss's wedding into the game. Originally envisioned as the "Ashen Marriage" quest in Novigrad, the storyline depicts Triss's burgeoning feelings for Castello and her desire for a swift marriage. Geralt aids in the wedding preparations, undertaking tasks such as ridding the canals of monsters, procuring alcohol, and selecting a wedding gift.

Interestingly, Triss's reaction is directly influenced by the chosen gift. Less elaborate presents receive a lukewarm reception, while a memory rose—a familiar item from The Witcher 2—evokes a powerful emotional response.
