Netflix revealed a new trailer for the second season of The Witcher as part of Saturday’s Tudum fan event, as well as two new clips. The preview, which was labeled a franchise trailer, also takes a look back at Season 1.
The trailer for the second season shows Kim Bodnia his Vesemir in Kaer Morhen as well as glimpses of Geralt, Ciri, and Yennefer of Vengerberg.

There was also a new scene showing the adaptation of The Witcher’s short story, Grain of Truth. That story is important in the narrative of the coming season. We also get a good look at Game of Thrones’ Kristofer Hivju as Nivellen.

In the second scene, Geralt wakes up next to Ciri with a Bruxa in the house they sleep in, which is some kind of vampire.

The most recent trailer for The Witcher appeared during WitcherCon, and in it we saw Ciri and Geralt training in a wintery Kaer Morhen. Since then, we discovered that the second season will start with an adaptation of the short story A Grain of Truth. This will be the first of eight episodes.
The Witcher showrunner, Lauren Schmidt Hissrich, has signed a new deal with Netflix that will allow her to make series other than The Witcher.
