CD Projekt Red absorbs The Molasses Flood

CD Projekt Red acquired indie studio, The Molasses Flood, a few years ago and ever since, the team has been working on a secret multiplayer project set in The Witcher universe. Now, The Molasses Flood has been completely absorbed by CDPR, meaning the entity ‘The Molasses Flood' no longer exists. 

The Molasses Flood is no more. Yes, the office and the team that works there are all still around, but now, it is just another CD Projekt Red studio, with no brand identity of its own. This also means that the studio no longer operates independently as part of the ‘CD Projekt Red Group' and is instead wholly controlled by the CDPR headquarters.

The situation was clarified in a statement on the studio's website, saying: “We want to let you know that on April 1, 2025, The Molasses Flood (TMF) merged with CD Projekt Red Inc. (CDPR Inc.), a company being a part of the CD Projekt Group. As a result of the merger TMF, in its former legal state (of a separate legal entity) ceased its operations, while CDPR Inc. assumed the rights and obligations of TMF.”

While The Molasses Flood is now just another CD Projekt studio, the company's old games, The Flame in the Flood and Drake Hollow, will continue to be available on PC and consoles, published by CD Projekt Red.

KitGuru Says: I've been keen to see what this studio has been up to with Project Sirius for a few years now. Hopefully we get a peak at that game in the not-too-distant future.
