Although the composers for the two previous games Adam Skorupa and Krzysztof Wierzynkiewicz created some of the music for the few first trailers (up to "Killing Monsters"), they are not making the soundtrack for this game.
In the trailer, Ciri can use many of the abilities that Geralt once used. She can use spells, drink potions that enhance her abilities, and withstand physical injuries that an average human cannot. She goes on to silence the Bauk, a monster that's more than twice her size.
The player's choices can lead to several different endings. If Ciri survives after defeating the White Frost and Geralt took her to meet her father, she will become the Empress of Nilfgaard. If Ciri survives but did not meet the emperor, Geralt helps her fake her death, and she becomes a witcher.

Combat complexity based on a variety of actions at the player’s disposal, not on correct attack sequencing
Within each region, you'll be able to find a wide array of Point of Interests marked on your map by a question mark. These points of interests can be one of the following:
In this haggling process, you are given a price range you can ask for starting at the base price. Ask too much of the NPC and their annoyance level increases. If you cap their annoyance level, you are forced to take the base reward The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt of the contract.
Crossbows and Bolts are another option available to you in combat. They deal less damage than Steel and Silver Weapons, but have the benefit of being able to hurt Enemies from ranged and ground most flying Enemies. While underwater, you are limited to only using your Crossbow to fight. Crossbows cannot be upgraded, but each Bolt has different effects that compensates for it. The Combat Skills skill tree can bolster Geralt's proficiency with weapons.
Besides Oils, you can make many other useful consumables through Alchemy in The Witcher 3, such as Potions and Decoctions. These are consumables that can grant Geralt a variety of different effects ranging from increased damage, to increasing Stamina regeneration, to the ability to see in the dark, to increasing carry weight, and so on. You can have up to two Potions/Decoctions equipped in your hotbar for quick access, but can also be consumed through the Inventory screen. Drinking any Potion/Decoction increases Geralt's Toxicity and changes Geralt's facial appearance, with Potions increasing it by 15-25 and Decoctions increasing it by 70.
Geralt’s adopted daughter Ciri is being hunted by the Wild Hunt — a brutal warband of spectral riders. He must track her down across a vast and complex world before they take her incredible power for her own.
Similar to The Witcher 3, this goes on to show that many villages take part in doing their rituals, and some may take extreme measures... just like what happened to this young girl and her father.

Its narrative received critical acclaim. Carter praised the cast of characters, which he called unique and interesting. He considered the narrative more involving, with players witnessing key events and making consequential choices.[107] Wallace praised the game's dialogue and its side-quests; each was similar to a short story, and player decisions in the quests would influence the state of the world. She liked the main quest, which added more character to Geralt, and said that the romance options were a significant improvement over its predecessors. However, she was disappointed with the quality of the game's endings.[108] Kevin Van Ord of GameSpot echoed Wallace, noting that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt's story had more characterisation for Geralt than the previous games.
