It’s time again for a fresh lineup of stunning cosplay. The spotlight shines on the elegant Yennefer, the Iris remake from Final Fantasy 7, and Lucy from Cyberpunk: Edgerunners.
Yennefer from The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt by Mi Mi
In this edition, two striking Yen looks appear side by side. The iconic black-haired sorceress is embodied in her main costume by the artist known as Mi Mi, who masterfully captures the character’s mystique. Fans can explore more Witcher-inspired photography in a separate piece dedicated to that universe.
In 2019 the Witcher trilogy was completed for the first time, and a deep affection for Yennefer grew instantly. She inspired the cosplayer to pursue this art with a single, clear goal: to render the final image as faithfully as possible to the source material. The fascination with Yen’s enigmatic charm became a driving force, a choice that paid off in a large-scale homage achieved with satisfaction.

Ashley Graham from Resident Evil 4 Remake by Ulichan
The excitement around the Resident Evil 4 remake persists. Most recently, Anastasia Galuzina, known as Ulichan, brought Ashley Graham to life. This feature presents both canonical interpretations and fan-service moments, with additional Resident Evil 4-inspired works available in the themed collection.

Triss from The Witcher 1 by Alexandra Reil
The remake of the first Witcher game sparked renewed interest in the heroines from 2007. Alexandra Reil has pursued a consistent vision to recreate canonical looks across the series, extending beyond the second and third installments and into the book saga as well. Here, the green dress from the initial game takes center stage.
In the first game, Triss features two outfits. The main one resembles Yen’s style, which isn’t my favorite. Yet the green dress perfectly captures Triss’s character, and it immediately drew my eye.

Cosplay Compilations
Lanaya (Templar Assassin) from Dota 2 by Lisa Akumura
A desire to learn propelled Lanaya into an ancient temple where hidden knowledge waits. In exchange for a glimpse of its power, she vows to protect these secrets from curious eyes. Lisa Akumura’s Dota 2 take on Lanaya blends agile combat with cunning magic traps.
I’ve been playing Dota since I was 15, and Lanaya was among my first cosplay efforts. After eight years, I revisited the image with refined craft and a deeper understanding of the character.

Iris Gainsborough from Final Fantasy 7 by Lada Lumos
News about the second part of the Final Fantasy 7 remake has been quiet for some time. Square Enix appears to be aiming toward the sixteenth main entry, but cosplayers keep revisiting the beloved original. Lada Lumos has already brought Tifa Lockhart to life and now focuses on Iris, another companion of Cloud Strife, illustrating enduring affection for the classic story.
Yennefer from The Witcher 3 by Valeria Chimera
Earlier in the feature, Yennefer appeared in her main ensemble. Valeria Chimera adds a fresh twist by portraying a sorceress in an alternative gown, a variant released after a game update in The Witcher 3 universe.
Eleanor from Atomic Heart by Alisa Arefieva
Eleanor presents a class of manipulation—an upgrade cabinet that augments weapons, skills, and attributes within the game’s world. Its orange-red, refrigerator-like exterior becomes a playful contrast to a character who mutates the concept of a traditional upgrade. The cosplay by Alisa Arefieva leans into the humanization theme, offering a persona that embodies inanimate objects through human interpretation.
When first meeting Eleanor during Atomic Heart, the idea of a humanized version of Elya seemed natural. The plan was to reveal the character with a layered approach, balancing detail work with performance. The artist anticipated showing additional twin-inspired elements in a future piece.

Lucy from Cyberpunk: Edgerunners by Shirogane-Sama
In the wake of CD Projekt RED’s Japanese studio leadership discussing the continuation of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, fans keep bringing Lucy to life through cosplay. Shirogane-Sama recently captured the character as David Martinez’s partner, keeping the spirit of the series alive in still images.
Rapi van Nikke: goddess of victory by Oichi
Nikke: Goddess of Victory invites players to assemble a roster of striking characters. Rapi, with a black beret, stands ready to strike, and the costume by Oichi showcases her bold presence. A separate article dives into Vera’s portrayal as well.
