Overnight, the official trailer for The Witcher: Blood Origin was released by Netflix. The four-part event series will release on Christmas Day and tell the origin story of the first witcher and the merging of worlds of men, elves and beasts. 

The series is set 1,200-odd years before the events of The Witcher series, which already had a lengthy span of time in its first season. It’s an action-packed trailer that introduces the group of seven who are attempting to stop the end of the world, a tyrannical leader of some sort who’s summoning beasts to a world without them.

Check out the trailer below, and don’t skip out too early as there’s a surprise at the end.
