Witcher 3 TV Show Mimics '80s Fantasy Films

Tech enthusiasts continue to explore the potential of screen adaptations using modern technology, with their sights now set on the Witcher universe. Sora AI, a YouTube channel creator, recently unveiled a concept trailer for a Witcher 3: Wild Hunt adaptation.

The trailer is styled to evoke the aesthetic of 1980s films, leveraging the power of neural networks. It features numerous recognizable characters from the Witcher universe, including Geralt, Yennefer, Ciri, Triss Merigold, Regis, Dijkstra, Priscilla, and others. While there are subtle alterations in their appearances, the characters remain easily identifiable.

Recently, the developers of Witcher 3 hinted at plans to incorporate Triss's wedding into the game. The "Ashen Marriage" quest was originally intended to take place in Novigrad. The storyline depicts Triss developing feelings for Castello and her desire for a swift marriage. Geralt aids in the wedding preparations, tasks including 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 are less well-received, while a memory rose—a familiar item from Witcher 2—elicits a strong emotional response.
