Founded in 2014, The Molasses Flood has only developed two games. Here’s a quick recap if you haven’t heard of The Molasses Flood before: It’s a small studio based in Boston that’s owned by CD Projekt Group. According to the company’s latest investors report, it’s currently doing “conceptual and research work on unannounced projects” and has another unannounced game in development at The Molasses Flood.

It’s somewhat baffling that on top of those projects (as well as a new single-player Gwent spinoff), CD Projekt Red has even more games in the works. A new entry in the Witcher franchise is in development at CD Projekt Red. Goodwill toward the studio is already at an all-time low because of Cyberpunk and a botched release for a new Witcher game would send any consumer faith crashing into the ground. Let’s be clear here: CD Projekt Red can’t afford another Cyberpunk 2077, especially in regard to a new Witcher title. The Witcher franchise is massively popular, and a sequel that follows The Witcher 3, which felt like a conclusion of longtime protagonist Geralt’s story, has a lot to live up to. The game doesn’t have a title yet and was only teased with a screenshot showing a Witcher’s talisman half-buried beneath the snow, but it was enough to intrigue fans. The Polish studio also has a sequel to The Witcher 3 in the works. The Witcher 3: Wild Huntis also set to get its own current-gen update, though its release date has been postponed indefinitely following CD Projekt Red’s decision to bring development in-house.
MAC PRO DESKTOP RED CASE UPDATE
Cyberpunk 2077 recently received a current-gen update and will get its first major story expansion next year. Flooding the pipelineĬD Projekt Red’s current content plans seek to reinforce what the studio already has out there. A recent earnings report from the company revealed that it’s working on numerous unannounced projects, one of which is being co-developed by another studio, The Molasses Flood, and will be based on one of CD Projekt Red’s franchises. While its short-term ambitions are pointed exclusively at past releases, the studio has future plans. Outwardly though, the company is appearing to shake off the dust of Cyberpunk 2077. In the time since, the studio has faced setback after setback, with its announcements leaning more toward a project being delayed rather than good news for fans. The studio - part of CD Projekt Group, a company that also owns the online games marketplace GOG - faced enormous criticism with the release of Cyberpunk 2077 and has since been busy fixing the game.

The past year-and-a-half havs not been kind to Polish developer CD Projekt Red.
