"Dawnwalker Game Director Leaves CDPR to Start Own Studio"

May 25,25(10 months ago)

Following the release of blockbuster titles like *The Witcher 3* and *Cyberpunk 2077*, not all of the talented experts at CD Projekt RED remained with the company. Instead, some chose to embark on a new journey with *The Blood of Dawnwalker*. Recently unveiled, this exciting new game is being developed by Rebel Wolves, a studio founded by a veteran from CD Projekt RED, Mateusz Tomaszkiewicz.

Tomaszkiewicz shared his motivations for leaving CDPR, highlighting his desire to explore new horizons with friends. "I wanted to do something different with my friends, so I started Rebel Wolves. Naturally, we have a strong interest in role-playing games and their history," he explained. "But I believe that these RPG rules can be developed and expanded. We came up with some wild ideas."

He noted the challenges of convincing large corporations to innovate with brand-new intellectual property. "Since it would be difficult to persuade any large corporation to change and do something novel, you know [to work with brand-new] intellectual property, we came to the realization that if we wanted to do them, we would need to open our own studio. Since we're working on some novel solutions, it's actually risky."

Tomaszkiewicz also emphasized the benefits of working in a smaller studio. "Unlike in large studios where it's more complicated, we work with people and between people [relationships] in our studio. A small team, in my opinion, is capable of more because there is communication among members and discussing the vision is simpler. Feeling the 'creative fire' and creating something unique is simpler."
