Warsaw, Poland – January 11, 2024 — Industry veteran Mateusz Tomaszkiewicz (The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Cyberpunk 2077, Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales) has officially joined games studio Rebel Wolves as their Creative Director. Mateusz joins many of his former CD PROJEKT RED colleagues, and many new talents within the Rebel Wolves team, as they work on their upcoming story-driven dark fantasy role-playing adventure that brings their vast experience together to create the RPG game of their dreams.

“Throughout all my years in game development, story-driven role-playing adventures have always been something I was most passionate about,” said Mateusz Tomaszkiewicz, Rebel Wolves Creative Director. “For me, nothing beats being able to fully immerse myself and discover handcrafted stories and worlds. There are so many fantastic RPGs out there today, however, I feel that there’s not only enough space but also a hunger among players for more captivating stories. That’s why I’m very happy to join many of my old-time friends and meet many new ones at Rebel Wolves as a Creative Director. We aim to deliver the RPG we’d love to play ourselves.”

The ability to craft worlds that players want to explore while telling emotionally resonant stories are the pillars on which Mateusz has built his career as a narrative designer. He joins a talented team of industry veterans many of whom he has worked together on projects such as The Witcher Series and Cyberpunk 2077. Their upcoming fantasy RPG title has officially entered the alpha stage of development and the team plans to share more about the game later this year.

We want to craft a world that you will want to explore and dive deep into and tell stories that make you care about the characters,” said Mateusz Tomaszkiewicz. “We aim to deliver an experience that will allow for a variety of choices and room for experimentation when replayed. Helping craft this experience with so many talented people will be my mission at Rebel Wolves, and I can’t wait for everyone to see what the team has been up to for quite a while now.”
