Warhorse Studios’ Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has captured significant attention this year, impressing RPG fans with its immersive medieval setting, compelling gameplay systems, and engaging story. Now, CD Projekt RED is making its own moves in the medieval RPG space, recruiting a key developer from Kingdom Come 2 to support the development of The Witcher 4.
Recently, former Warhorse Lead Game Designer Karel Kolmann transitioned to CD Projekt RED, where he will take on the role of Senior Quest Designer. This marks a notable addition to CD Projekt RED’s team, as Kolmann confirmed the news on his social media accounts this week.
Kolmann’s announcement was succinct but meaningful. His shared post stated simply, “I’m happy to share that I’ve joined CD Projekt RED.” Additional details on his LinkedIn profile reveal his new position as Senior Quest Designer at CDPR.
Kolmann’s eight-year tenure at Warhorse Studios saw him rise through several roles, including writer, quest designer, game designer, and ultimately Lead Game Designer. He contributed substantially to the development of Kingdom Come: Deliverance and its sequel, playing a major role in creating Kingdom Come 2’s Hardcore Mode and law system.
Given Kolmann’s extensive experience and influence on some of Kingdom Come’s best features, his move to CD Projekt RED is an exciting prospect for fans eagerly anticipating The Witcher 4.
