Marcin Blacha, the VP and Narrative Lead at CD Projekt Red, has highlighted the need for an "exceptional team" for Project Hadar. Aspiring developers with the right skills are invited to explore the open positions and play a role in shaping this new game. Unlike their previous works, The Witcher series, which draws from Andrzej Sapkowski's novels, and Cyberpunk 2077, which originated from a tabletop RPG, Project Hadar introduces an entirely new universe crafted by CD Projekt. While specifics are still under wraps, it's clear that this won't be a space horror game. Previously, only around twenty individuals were part of the development team.

Currently, the Hadar team is actively seeking professionals in various fields, including programmers, VFX experts, technical artists, writers, and mission designers. The project being described as a "once-in-a-lifetime chance" by leading developers indicates a shift from initial conceptualization to full-scale production.
CD Projekt Red is simultaneously managing multiple projects. The largest team is dedicated to Project Polaris, the first installment of a new Witcher trilogy that will focus on Ciri. Additionally, there are teams working on a sequel to Cyberpunk 2077 and another game set in The Witcher universe.
