Techland announced the development of an AAA role-playing game. The project will be handled by former employees of CD Projekt RED

Very few details are known about the new project. It is reported that this is a new IP and that the game will take place in a large-scale fantasy world.

But there is information about who exactly will be responsible for the project in leadership positions. There are quite a few of them who were responsible for the narrative in The Witcher:

– Karolina Stahira, screenwriter of The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings and The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt (author of the quest “The Bloody Baron”);
– Arkadiusz Borovik, another screenwriter of The Witcher 2 and 3:
– Bartosz von Ohman, screenwriter of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and designer of the open world Cyberpunk 2077.

Also, developers of no less popular projects have recently joined the project as leads:

– Mario Maltezos, Design Director of Batman: Arkham Knight, Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor and Creative Director of Batman: Arkham Origins;
– David McClure, Deathloop Mechanic Designer;
– Kevin Quaid, Lead animator of Horizon: Zero Dawn;
– Marcin Surosh, lead UI designer of Outriders.
