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 adopts a distinct 1980s film aesthetic, leveraging neural network technology for its creation. Numerous iconic characters from the Witcher universe are featured, including Geralt, Yennefer, Ciri, Triss Merigold, Regis, Dijkstra, Priscilla, and others. While some visual alterations are present, the characters remain easily recognizable.

Recently, the developers of The Witcher 3 hinted at plans to incorporate Triss's wedding into the game. The "Ashen Marriage" quest was originally intended for Novigrad. The storyline depicts Triss developing feelings for Castello and her desire for a swift marriage. Geralt assists with wedding preparations, tasks ranging from clearing canal monsters to procuring 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, whereas a memory rose—a familiar item from The Witcher 2—elicits a far stronger emotional response.
