1980s Fantasy Movie-Esque

Tech enthusiasts continue to explore screen adaptations using modern technology, and their latest focus is the Witcher series. A concept trailer for a Witcher 3: Wild Hunt adaptation, crafted by the Sora AI YouTube channel, has recently surfaced.

The trailer emulates the aesthetic of 1980s films, leveraging neural network technology for its creation. It features numerous recognizable characters from the Witcher universe, including Geralt, Yennefer, Ciri, Triss Merigold, Regis, Dijkstra, Priscilla, and others. While some minor visual alterations are present, the characters remain easily identifiable.

Recently, the developers of The Witcher 3 hinted at their intention to include Triss's wedding in the game. The "Ashen Marriage" quest was originally planned for 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 gift chosen. Less elaborate gifts are poorly received, while a memory rose—a familiar item from The Witcher 2—elicits a strong emotional response from her.
