When you’ve got two of the biggest names in gaming under your belt, it’s pretty safe to say that you know a thing or two about the games industry. Taking the issues that both Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher 3 had at launch into account, there’s still huge excitement to hear of a new studio, one that has been put together by industry veterans. That studio is Rebel Wolves – and they are working on an Unreal Engine 5 powers dark fantasy RPG. 

Headed up by Konrad Tomaszkiewicz – the Game Director on The Witcher 3, Head of Production and Secondary Game Director on Cyberpunk 2077 – the new pack is Rebel Wolves; a team driven by the desire to build a passionate team dedicated to creating vibrant virtual worlds, filled to the brim with powerful emotions and unique experiences.

Konrad has envisioned this new studio with a united goal of doing things differently while also puttng the team first at all times.

“For all of us here at Rebel Wolves, video games were always something we felt designed to do—something ingrained in our DNA. Personally, I couldn’t be happier to have banded together with friends who share this passion. We’re developing a video game we’d like to play in a way that games should be made. We want to evolve the cRPG genre by creating unforgettable stories and stirring deep emotions, all while working as a tightly knit team united by a shared goal and ambition. Collectively, we envision Rebel Wolves as a place where experienced game developers can reignite their passion, where they can focus on their cra and pour their love into an amazing, ambitious title. We want to stay small and agile—a place where people know and care for each other.” – Konrad Tomaszkiewicz, Rebel Wolves CEO and Game Director

Rebel Wolves brings together a team of industry vets who have the likes of The Witcher, Cyberpunk 2077, Thronebreaker and Shadow Warrior 2 behind them, with those involved safe in the knowledge that the new studio will be putting a huge focus on creating a fair vibe, built on teamwork and openness. 

They are working on their first project now too – a new RPG that is powered by Unreal 5 and the first of a planned saga. It promises to be dark and fantastical, and we’re sure Rebel Wolves will be looking to expand on details in the weeks and months ahead. 

“In order to create truly great games, we won’t chase trends or numbers. Our goal is clearly defined: to create memorable games, tell moving stories, and evoke visceral emotions. It’s ambitious, true – and I’m glad it is. Art needs ambition. I don’t want to create another game. I want to work on titles people will remember.” – Jakub Szamałek – Narrative Director & Main Writer

Based in Poland, Rebel Wolves is formed by Design Director Daniel Sadowski (Witcher 1, Nitreal Games, Growing Up), Narrave Director and Main Writer Jakub Szamałek (Witcher 3, Cyberpunk 2077, Thronebreaker), Animation Director Tamara Zawada (Witcher 3, Shadow Warrior 2, Capcom Vancouver), Art Director Bartłomiej Gaweł (Witcher 1-3), CFO Michał Boryka, and Studio Head Robert Murzynowski.
