Previously, the harvester driver created mods for The Witcher 3 in his free time.

Pavel Sasko, game director of the Cyberpunk 2077 sequel, spoke about a unique case involving one of the developers of the new part of the adventures of Geralt of Rivia. Thus, CD Projekt RED hired not a professional game designer, but mod creator Eero Varendi, as the lead developer of The Witcher 4. Previously, he worked as a combine driver, and after the main work of harvesting, he made modifications to the third Witcher. Sasko drew attention to one of the modder’s works. This was a mod that transferred the introductory part of the first The Witcher to the engine of the third part. What’s most interesting is that Varendi did everything on his own, since the REDkit toolkit did not exist at that time.

Sasko managed to contact the modder and send him a test task, which Varendi successfully completed. Afterwards, the young man moved from Australia to Poland (he himself is from Estonia) and became a senior developer of The Witcher.
