Witcher 3 CD Projekt Red EA takeover

The developer behind The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, CD Projekt Red, has denied that EA is attempting to acquire the company. Rumours that CD Projekt is in talks with EA over a takeover began with a post from DSOGaming yesterday claiming that a CD Projekt Red employee reported that EA representatives were meeting with the management of CD Projekt, the Witcher 3 developer’s parent company.

CD Projekt Red’s community manager, Marcin Momot, took to Twitter to deny the rumours. He claims Marcin Iwinski, the company’s co-founder, knew nothing of any deals with EA.

According to DSOGaming, an employee of CD Projekt Red claimed EA representatives were meeting with the top managers of CD Projekt Red.

“I’m employee of CDProjekt Red and I have some bad news to share with you,” the statement read. “Our management is probably talking with Electronic Arts about potential take over. Electronic Arts representatives are currently visiting our studio and meeting with top management. We are not going to release any game soon, so for sure it’s not about any publishing deal, so the only possible reason for EA guys being here is that they want to buy us.”

This statement wasn’t exactly ironclad to begin with. It’s highly speculative and many see it as jumping to conclusions. But it did send the internet into a big enough frenzy to warrant a response from members of CD Projekt Red.

CD Projekt has admitted in the past that it is regularly approached by other companies with takeover offers, but has remained firm in its desire to retain its independence. Its most recent game, The Witcher 3, was released to critical acclaim and became one of the year’s fastest selling titles. The developer’s next title will be Cyberpunk 2077, which it won’t discuss in more detail until 2017.

Dead Cells’ Return to Castlevania expansion, which came out a few weeks ago and is really good, is a great way to relive your childhood and enjoy a nostalgic distraction. A native PS5 physical release of the game is in the works, and it looks like we’ll be getting a bundle with both versions of the game.

Gematsu found a listing for “Dead Cells: Return to Castlevania Edition” on the ESRB website. It was rated T for Teen, which suggests that an announcement is coming soon.

After its initial 2018 release on PS4 to widespread acclaim, Dead Cells has received a steady stream of updates, and we think a bundled SKU including DualSense support and all the other PS5 bells and whistles would be awesome. What do you think of Return to Castlevania if you’ve been playing it?

Is Marvel’s Midnight Suns on the PlayStation 5 your curios? Over the weekend, anyone who wanted to could try out the tactical superhero game for free. Unfortunately, due to a few mistakes, it hasn’t been helping everyone. The good news is that this hiccup has been fixed, and the trial has been extended to make up for lost time:

As a result, until Thursday, March 30th, all PS5 owners can enjoy the game at no cost. You’ll have plenty of time to check it out after that.

Firaxis’ Marvel’s Midnight Suns gives familiar heroes and villains a fresh spin through the use of turn-based strategy and role-playing game elements. You’ll be able to hang out with Marvel’s Blade, Captain Marvel, and Wolverine when you’re not engaged in tactical battles. The game has its own style and is fun to play.

It’s also important to note that PS Plus Premium members can play the game for two hours for free. That’s why it’s not the end of the world if you can’t take advantage of this protracted trial period.

Will you be using this demo to check out Marvel’s Midnight Suns on the PS5?
