Today new indie studio Rebel Wolves reached out with a press release to announce its formation to the world, under the leadership of CEO and game director Konrad Tomaszkiewicz.
The name may certainly ring a bell as Tomaszkiewicz was game director on The Witcher 3 and head of production on Cyberpunk 2077 before his departure from CD Projekt RED.
The studio has been formed by veterans of the industry who have worked on the games mentioned above as well as Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales, Shadow Warrior 2, and more.
They’re currently working on a dark fantasy RPG built in Unreal Engine 5 for PC and next-gen (or we should likely say “current” gen by now) consoles. We also hear that it’s planned to be the first of a new saga.
Here’s a list of the developers on the roster for the moment.
