CDPR Strengthens Its Talent Pool For Cyberpunk 2 As Bioshock 4 Writer Joins Studio

Expert Verified By

CDPR Seems to be Scooping Up All the Top Talent — One Star At A Time!

Story Highlight
  • CDPR has hired a former BioShock 4 Narrative Lead to work on Cyberpunk 2.
  • The studio is on a hiring spree, acquiring the best talent from all over the industry.
  • It is working on multiple titles, the biggest of which include Witcher 4 and Cyberpunk 2.

CD Projekt Red is working on 2 of the biggest franchises in the industry, The Witcher and Cyberpunk, simultaneously. As the studio delves deeper into the development, it is also looking to fill its team with more talented individuals. 

After previously hiring Insomniac Games’ veteran gameplay programmer, CDPR has now brought on board a former BioShock 4 writer as a Senior Writer to strengthen the core team working on Cyberpunk 2’s narrative. 

Why it matters: It appears that CDPR wants to hire every talented individual available to grow its talent pool wider than ever, which is great for the fans, as we can expect some great things from the sequel. 

CDPR Hiring Talent
CDPR has hired a former BioShock 4 writer for Cyberpunk 2

Former Cloud Chamber Games writer, Liz Albl, who worked on BioShock 4 as the Narrative Lead, has now joined CDPR. Liz apparently left CCG in August, about the same time the company saw widespread layoffs. 

Her former credits include Ghost of Tsushima, Watch Dogs: Legion, and Monolith’s cancelled Wonder Woman game. With CDPR, she’ll be working on Cyberpunk 2 as a writer, so she’ll be focusing on the game’s narrative. 

Cyberpunk 2077
Cyberpunk 2 is officially in very early development at this stage

The title is currently in very early development stages and is unlikely to be released in the next few years. As for The Witcher 4, it is expected to be released in 2027 or a bit later, and the studio has also hired a former KCD2 Quest Designer to work on it. 

So, CDPR is on a hiring spree, ensuring it has the best people working on all its projects. The studio is known for high quality, and even made up for the bad Cyberpunk 2077 launch with the title’s massive redemption.
