Marcin Blacha, the Vice President and Narrative Lead at CD Projekt Red, has underscored the need for an "exceptional team" for Project Hadar. Aspiring developers with the right skills are invited to explore the available positions and join the effort in crafting this new title.
Unlike CD Projekt Red's previous successes, The Witcher series, which draws from Andrzej Sapkowski’s rich novels, and Cyberpunk 2077, inspired by a tabletop RPG, Project Hadar introduces players to a completely new universe crafted by the studio. While specifics are still under wraps, it's confirmed that the game will not venture into space horror territory. Until recently, the project was being 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 describe this opportunity as a "once-in-a-lifetime chance," suggests that Project Hadar is moving from its conceptual phase into full-scale production.
CD Projekt Red is simultaneously managing multiple 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 at work on a sequel to Cyberpunk 2077 and another game set within The Witcher universe.
