I was happy to hear last week that Project Sirius, the Witcher spinoff game in development at CD Projekt's Molasses Flood studio, was back on track after running into some kind of trouble earlier this year. But as a result of changes to the project's new direction, 29 people, most of them employees at The Molasses Flood, have been laid off.
Sirius was revealed in October 2022 as "an innovative take on The Witcher universe," being developed by Molasses Flood with support from CD Projekt Red. CD Projekt had acquired Molasses Flood, whose previous games include The Flame in the Flood and Drake Hollow, six months prior to that, in April 2022.
