CD Projekt Red Seeks Talent for Enigmatic Project Hadar

by Eleanor May 12,2025

Marcin Blacha, the VP and Narrative Lead at CD Projekt Red, has highlighted that Project Hadar requires an "exceptional team." Aspiring developers with the right skills are invited to explore the open positions and play a role in shaping this ambitious new game.

Unlike CD Projekt Red's previous successes, The Witcher series (which draws from Andrzej Sapkowski's novels) and Cyberpunk 2077 (inspired by a tabletop RPG), Project Hadar introduces players to a completely new universe crafted by the studio. While details are still limited (with the assurance that it won't be a space horror), it's known that the project was initially developed by a small team of about twenty individuals.

Currently, the Hadar team is expanding and seeking to fill several key roles, including programmers, VFX experts, technical artists, writers, and mission designers. The enthusiasm from top developers, who refer to this as a "once-in-a-lifetime chance," suggests that Project Hadar is moving from conceptual stages into full-scale production.

CD Projekt Red is simultaneously managing multiple high-profile projects. The largest team is dedicated to Project Polaris, the inaugural installment of a new Witcher trilogy centered around Ciri. Additionally, two other teams are actively working on a sequel to Cyberpunk 2077 and another game set within The Witcher universe.
