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 emulates the aesthetic of 1980s films, leveraging neural network technology for its creation. Many recognizable characters from the Witcher universe feature prominently, including Geralt, Yennefer, Ciri, Triss Merigold, Regis, Dijkstra, Priscilla, and others. While some minor visual alterations exist, the characters remain easily identifiable.

Recently, the developers of The Witcher 3 hinted at the inclusion of Triss's wedding in the game. The "Ashen Marriage" quest was originally intended for Novigrad. The storyline involves Triss's burgeoning feelings for Castello and her desire for a swift marriage. Geralt assists with wedding preparations, including monster extermination in the canals, acquiring alcohol, and selecting a wedding gift.

Interestingly, Triss's reaction is directly influenced by the gift chosen. Less elaborate gifts are met with less enthusiasm, while a memory rose—a familiar item from The Witcher 2—elicits a strong emotional response from her.
