What We Do

CD PROJEKT RED is home to over 900 game-making professionals from all over the globe. We speak many different languages, but share one love — video games.

The studio’s portfolio largely comprises The Witcher series of role-playing games, including 2015’s The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, which received over 250 Game of the Year awards. In 2020, the studio released its most recent game: Cyberpunk 2077 — a first-person RPG set in a futuristic, high-tech world. Other notable releases include Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales, and GWENT: The Witcher Card Game — in which players create decks of witcher-world warriors and fight epic card battles with other people around the globe.

Headquartered in Warsaw, Poland, CD PROJEKT RED has offices in Kraków and Wrocław, as well as in Los Angeles and Vancouver.

The studio is part of the larger CD PROJEKT S.A. Capital Group, which also includes Spokko, a mobile-focused developer responsible for The Witcher: Monster Slayer, and The Molasses Flood, a development studio in Boston, which is currently working on a game based on one of CD PROJEKT RED’s IPs.

As the company grows, the overall studio mission remains the same: we strive to create the best RPGs in the world, while always keeping gamers’ needs at the core.
