However, in response to a question from shareholders, the company’s CEO, Adam Kiciński, has flatly denied it, while ensuring that it is nothing more than a mere rumor.

“Nothing has changed in our end,” he declared. “So, I can repeat what we have been saying throughout the years – CD Projekt is not for sale.We want to remain independent. We have, I believe an excellent strategy. Not easy to execute, for sure, but it’s very exciting to follow our own path. So it’s a pure rumor “, he confirmed.

It recently came to light that The Molasses Flood project has suffered important changes in development, and they’ve gone ahead and refocused their efforts.
