## Summary

CD Projekt Red has hired Baldur’s Gate 3 writer Baudelaire Welch as a senior writer specialist on Project Sirius, its multiplayer game set in The Witcher universe. The appointment brings an experienced narrative designer to a project whose development has faced setbacks, though the game’s direction and progress remain unclear.

Welch led Baldur’s Gate 3’s Dark Urge storyline, contributed to Astarion’s romance scenes and worked on companion quests. Project Sirius was rebooted in 2023, followed by layoffs, with further job cuts reported earlier this year. Welch said they had joined the team several months ago but could not yet discuss the game.
