4 years later, The Witcher multiplayer devs have been fully absorbed into CD Projekt: "This is a GOOD AND HEALTHY thing for the studio, and it was long-expected," co-founder says

Ciri in The Witcher 3.

The Molasses Flood, an indie studio founded in 2014 by a group of developers with experience on titles like BioShock, Halo 2, and Guitar Hero, was acquired by CD Projekt in 2021. The Molasses Flood has been at work on the untitled Witcher multiplayer game Project Sirius ever since, but now CDPR has fully taken the studio's reins.

As of April 1, The Molasses Flood has ceased operations as "a separate legal entity," as noted on the studio's official website (via Game Developer). This doesn't mean that the studio is gone or the developers are being laid off – at least, there have been no layoff announcements alongside this news – but rather that the studio is now straight-up a part of CD Projekt proper.
