CD Projekt Red has brought on award-winning composer Russell Brower as its new audio director, strengthening its leadership team ahead of two major AAA releases. Brower, best known for shaping the iconic soundscapes of Blizzard franchises like World of Warcraft, Diablo, and Overwatch, began his new role in January 2026.
Although CDPR did not formally announce the hire, Brower’s LinkedIn profile confirms his position, and recent job listings suggest he will contribute to both The Witcher 4 and the sequel to Cyberpunk 2077. With over 70 game credits and three Emmy Awards, Brower’s return to studio leadership signals CDPR’s ambition to elevate audio design as a pillar of its next-generation titles.
