Larian Studios has revealed the launch of a new studio in Warsaw, Poland, marking its seventh studio globally. The company already operates studios in Quebec, Dublin, Guildford, Barcelona, Ghent, and Kuala Lumpur. Larian is currently hiring for various positions at the Warsaw studio, including RPG Designer, Graphics Programmer, Tools Programmer, and Writer. Moreover, they have an open application process for those interested in joining Larian Warsaw.
“The decision to open a permanent studio in Warsaw shows how serious we are about encouraging creativity, collaboration, and innovation in the heart of Poland’s lively gaming scene,” said Ula Jach, Head of Studio. “We’re thrilled for the opportunity to collaborate with the abundant talent and expertise of the region, especially considering Poland’s strong reputation as a hub for RPG and gaming enthusiasts.”
Swen Vincke, CEO of Larian Studios, said, “Visiting GIC last year confirmed what I’d been thinking for a while – there’s a lot of talent here and a lot of devs who think like us.
On top of that, many of them want to work on RPGs so it’s a match made in heaven.
Our plan for the Polish studio is very simple. Build a team that can work on our two – very ambitious – new RPGs and enjoy the fruits of their labor. We’re a very bottom up company so I’m eager to see what new things they’ll bring us. I think it’ll work really well.”
Larian Studios’ latest release, Baldur’s Gate 3, has been met with critical acclaim. In our review, Dom noted, “Baldur’s Gate 3 is an exquisite example of a role-playing game, and an incredible recreation of the Dungeons & Dragons experience. It is, in a word, unmissable.”
Despite its success, Larian Studios has confirmed that it will not be developing any DLC for Baldur’s Gate 3, nor does it have plans to develop Baldur’s Gate 4 or any other games within the Dungeons & Dragons universe.
