Good reviews are a 'great relief,' says Blood of Dawnwalker director, as former CD Projekt coworkers line up to offer congratulations

Creative director Mateusz Tomaszkiewicz of Blood of Dawnwalker has expressed great relief after receiving mostly positive reviews for the upcoming horror RPG. The game, set to release on September 2, received an 83/100 aggregate rating on Metacritic, with The Guardian giving it an 83% score. Tomaszkiewicz, who previously worked at CD Projekt as a quest designer on The Witcher 2, lead quest designer on The Witcher 3, and game director on Cyberpunk 2077, admitted that waiting for the reviews had been "nerve wrecking."

However, he expressed his excitement for players to experience the game and share their thoughts. Several former CD Projekt coworkers, including Paweł Sasko, Sebastian Kalemba, Miles Tost, Marcin Momot, and P.T. Adamczyk, congratulated Tomaszkiewicz on his achievement.
