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

Tech enthusiasts continue to explore the potential of screen adaptations using modern technology, turning their attention to 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's aesthetic is reminiscent of 1980s films, achieved through the innovative use of neural networks. Many familiar faces from the Witcher universe appear, including Geralt, Yennefer, Ciri, Triss Merigold, Regis, Dijkstra, Priscilla, and others. While some stylistic liberties have been taken with their appearances, they remain easily recognizable.

Recently, the developers of The Witcher 3 hinted at plans to incorporate Triss's wedding into the game. Originally conceived 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, tasks ranging from ridding the canals of monsters to procuring alcohol and selecting a wedding gift.

Interestingly, Triss's reaction is directly influenced by the chosen gift. Modest gifts receive a lukewarm reception, while a memory rose – a familiar item from The Witcher 2 – elicits a far more emotional response.
