CD Projekt Red is on the hunt for talent to bring its mysterious Project Hadar to life

Marcin Blacha, the Vice President and Narrative Lead at CD Projekt Red, has made it clear that Project Hadar requires an "exceptional team." This ambitious project is calling out to skilled developers to explore open positions and play a vital role in shaping this new venture. Unlike CD Projekt Red's previous successes, The Witcher series (which draws from Andrzej Sapkowski’s acclaimed novels) and Cyberpunk 2077 (inspired by a tabletop RPG), Project Hadar ventures into a completely original universe. While details about the game are still under wraps—except for the assurance that it won't be a space horror—until recently, only about twenty individuals were involved in its development.

Currently, the Hadar team is on the hunt for a select group of professionals, including programmers, VFX experts, technical artists, writers, and mission designers. The buzz around this project, with top developers calling it a "once-in-a-lifetime chance," suggests that Project Hadar is moving from the conceptual phase into full-scale production.

CD Projekt Red is not putting all its eggs in one basket. Alongside Project Hadar, the studio is managing multiple projects. The largest team is dedicated to Project Polaris, the first installment in a new Witcher trilogy that will focus on Ciri. Additionally, two other teams are hard at work on a sequel to Cyberpunk 2077 and another game set in The Witcher universe.
