As work on The Witcher 4 continues to press on, CD Projekt Red welcomes new developers to its team of talented RPG masterminds – and one of its more recent newcomers is none other than a former Baldur's Gate 3 artist. Felix Pedulla, who has plenty of cinematic experience under his belt now, worked at Larian Studios for a solid six years. While there, he served as a senior cinematic artist on Baldur's Gate 3 – an RPG I'd argue genuinely might have some of the most beautiful and emotional cinematic work I've ever seen in the genre. Pedulla is ready to set sail, however, and is moving on to another behemoth project: The Witcher 4. The ex-Baldur's Gate 3 dev reveals as much in a new LinkedIn post, celebrating his time at Larian Studios while looking forward to what's next now with CD Projekt Red. "After an incredible and frankly wild six-year ride with the amazing team at Larian Studios, a new chapter begins," writes the artist, his profile showing he's a "Senior Cinematic Designer" at CDPR. "I'm so grateful for every chaotic, creative, and unforgettable moment we shared."Pedulla continues: "We made some serious magic together, and I'll forever cherish the lessons and memories. A huge thank you to all my incredible colleagues and friends I made." He then admits his excitement surrounding his new role with The Witcher 4 devs, exclaiming, "As one adventure ends, another begins! I am absolutely thrilled to announce that I'm joining the legendary team at CD Projekt Red as a Senior Cinematic Designer!" Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2's loss is The Witcher 4's gain as CD Projekt Red picks up the lead gameplay designer behind one of the best parts of the action RPG Baldur's Gate 3 provided "a lot of inspiration" for CD Projekt Red, but The Witcher 4 devs are sticking to their own RPG formula: "We definitely are not going to make a game like Larian did" The Witcher 4 will feature ideas from the latest Witcher novel, just like The Witcher 3 did 12 years ago – but CD Projekt Red "can't reveal how exactly" they'll take form yet Unsurprisingly, the new CDPR dev seems thrilled – and who wouldn't be? He's moved from one RPG gem to yet another. "The opportunity to contribute to one of the most ambitious studios in the industry is a dream come true," as Padeulla concludes. "Time to trade in my Baldur's Gate dice for some Polish steel and get to work crafting some epic cutscenes." That might just be one of my favorite job announcement lines of all time, if I'm honest. Here's hoping The Witcher 4 turns out as incredible as it seems it's shaping up to be – it's certainly my most anticipated pick of all the upcoming CD Projekt Red games, and arguably one of the biggest new games overall underway right now. GTA 6 might've won the "Most Wanted Game" award at the Golden Joysticks, but The Witcher 4 wasn't far behind
