CD Projekt RED Bolsters Witcher 4 Production By Recruiting Key Talent From Warhorse Studios To Drive The Future Of Next Generation Role Playing Games
CD Projekt RED is in hyperdrive with the production of The Witcher 4, and they have just recruited another key member of the Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 development team to bolster their workforce. This latest hiring comes after a heavy rush by the Polish developer to recruit as many talented game developers as possible to fuel the production of the next generation of role playing games coming from their studios. It also indicates that they are not giving up on scouting experienced and highly skilled European designers for their work.
As indicated by a career notification on LinkedIn, veteran designer and writer Zdenk Glatz has joined CD Projekt RED in an undisclosed role. Before his position at Warhorse Studios where he was largely responsible for the creative direction and writing of the sequel to Kingdom Come Deliverance, his skills should certainly benefit the new studio in either future Witcher games or one of the Cyberpunk projects. His recruitment at CD Projekt RED came right after producers Alisa Severova and game designers Karel Kolmann both made the switch from Warhorse Studios over to the Polish developer.
With numerous high level individuals moving to the Polish developer, questions have begun to arise about the long term future at Warhorse Studios. Creative director Daniel Vvra is seemingly moving his focus over to a film and television adaptation of the Kingdom Come property. Following one senior leader after another transferring to the Polish developer, many are looking closely at how a potential Kingdom Come Deliverance 3 will develop given the current state of Warhorse Studios. CD Projekt RED, meanwhile, stands to benefit greatly from the acquisition of these three integral members of the Warhorse team.
