CD Projekt Red, the developer behind both The Witcher and Cyberpunk, is expanding its workforce for an unannounced project called Project Hadar. According to Karolina Gnas, vice president of investor relations, the team currently consists of over 30 people and aims to hire up to 50 more developers by the end of the year. Gnas revealed this information during the company's latest earnings call on Wednesday.
The current focus of the Project Hadar team is to test various approaches, ideas, and prototype gameplay elements. However, Gnas noted that the project is still in the concept phase. CD Projekt Red has also confirmed that the remake of The Witcher 1 is currently on hold to allocate more resources towards The Witcher 4, which is set for a 2028 release.
Additionally, the company is working on the upcoming Witcher 3 expansion, Songs of the Past, as well as a sequel to Cyberpunk and a remake of The Witcher 1. Despite this busy schedule, CDPR continues to release new content, with The Witcher 3 Remastered launching this month, available for free to existing owners with their old save files intact.
