Although Sousou no Frieren ended a few days ago, fans from all over the internet continue to create content based on the anime, being that a theme has spread through social networks, which consists of its protagonist, Frieren, being part of different video game universes. And in order to achieve this, many artists began to create covers that recreate some of the most important titles of the gaming world, leaving interesting and curious images.
Frieren reaches the world of Final Fantasy, GTA and other video games in epic covers
With the recent completion of her anime, at least until it continues in the future, Frieren has been making people talk on social networks, not only because her story became one of the most important in recent years, but also because Internet users took the opportunity to start a curious trend. And, as this Facebook user shared, several illustrators decided to take the cute elf to the world of several well-known video games.
In order to achieve this, you can see how these images recreate the original covers of the games, adapting them so that Frieren is the main protagonist, perfectly imitating this, in addition to adding other characters seen in the anime to perfectly generate this union that fans will love. In addition, thanks to the fact that many illustrators joined in the creation of the covers, the diversity of styles is a more than interesting point when it comes to appreciate the works, along with the possibility of finding a large number of well-known titles, as well as some a little less popular, but just as important.
And the variety will be total, being that some of the artists sought to make the union between Frieren, which belongs to a magical world full of creatures of all kinds, with video games that follow this theme, which is why for example we can see the girl recreated in Final Fantasy or The Legend of Zelda. But also many others took advantage of the wave of covers for the “waifu” to be present in games very different from what we are used to with her, such as the one based on GTA or Cyberpunk 2077.
Below we share some of the best covers made by the artists, where we can see the great variety, as well as the talent and ingenuity to create these interesting illustrations:
As Internet users were the ones who most echoed the posts, they made different comments on the images, the most repeated being those who praised the creation of this theme, especially when it was one of their favorite games that was represented. In addition, others remarked how the Dark Souls saga and the Elden Ring game had been the most chosen titles by the artists, especially because both base their story on fantastic worlds, although in Sousou no Frieren everything tends to be much calmer than in the video games mentioned above.
Sousou no Frieren was released at the end of the year 2023, presenting a captivating story that gives a twist to the classic adventures of heroes, since in this case we will meet a group of adventurers who have already finished their journey. Here we will meet Frieren, the elf mage of the group who, because of her race, ages much slower than her companions, so she will inevitably see them leave this world first. But her adventure continues and we will see how she continues with her life, but remembering her past, in this case accompanied by her new apprentice Fern, in a beautiful new story for this elf.
