Following the releases of *The Witcher 3* and *Cyberpunk 2077*, not all experts at CD Projekt RED remained with the company. Some chose to embark on a new journey with *The Blood of Dawnwalker*. This game has been recently unveiled by Rebel Wolves, a studio founded by a CD Projekt RED veteran.
Mateusz Tomaszkiewicz, one of the founders of Rebel Wolves, shared his reasons for leaving CDPR. His main points include:
"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. [But] I believe that these RPG rules can be developed and expanded. We came up with some wild ideas. 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. 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."
