CD Projekt RED has announced that it has now fully absorbed The Molasses Flood into itself. This means that The Molasses Flood now no longer exists as a separate legal entity. The announcement was made through a statement on the official website of The Molasses Flood (via Eurogamer), which reveals that the merger went into full affect on April 1. “We want to let you know that on April 1, 2025, The Molasses Flood LLC (“TMF”) merged with CD PROJEKT RED Inc. (“CDPR Inc.”), a company being a part of the CD PROJEKT Group,” wrote The Molasses Flood in its statement. “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.” The studio did say that, while it is no longer an individual legal entity, its work on The Flame in the Flood and Drake Hollow will not be affected by this move. On the completion of development, CD Projekt will continue to publish the games. “The merger will not affect the availability or distribution of ‘The Flame in The Flood‘ and ‘Drake Hollow‘ video games, which will continue to be published by CD PROJEKT Group,” it wrote. The Molasses Flood co-founder Damian Isla took to LinkedIn to talk about the merger in more detail. In a post on the social media website, Isla referred to the move as being “the end of an era.” He also referred to the merger as being a good thing for the studio, crediting it with helping break down organisational barriers. “To be ultra clear: this is a GOOD AND HEALTHY thing for the studio, and it was long-expected. It breaks down some organizational barriers, and better integrates the TMF team with the rest of the amazing CDPR org,” wrote Isla. “Overall, it shows a very bright future for Project Sirius (aka “the multiplayer Witcher game,” of which I was the Design Director for three years). It’s going to be an amazing game, one for the books, and I cannot wait until the rest of the world learns about what we’ve been working on.” However, Isla does note that he has decided to “not follow TMF on this transition.” He has stated that March 31 was his last day with the studio. “Obviously this is a big change,” he wrote. “TMF has been a huge part of my life for the past decade plus, and I’m proud of have been a part of building something that lasted as long as TMF did, in a market environment often quite hostile to tiny teams like ours. I think we made some beautiful, memorable and quirky things, and I’ve also gotten to work with some of the kindest, most generous and talented people in the industry.” CD Projekt had acquired The Molasses Flood all the way back in October 2021. Since then, The Molasses Flood has been working on its own projects, as well as Project Sirius, which is going to be a multiplayer game based on The Witcher franchise. Tagged With:
