Der har i længere tid floreret rygter om, at The Witcher-udviklerne hos CD Projekt RED ville blive overtaget af andre i forbindelse med aktionærmødet den 29. November.
En talsmand fra CD Projekt RED er gået frem og har afkræftet rygterne som en stor misforståelse. Han udtalte følgende
As for the rumor, it emerged after the [board of directors] suggested introducing a voting cap during the upcoming shareholder meeting. However, the proposal is not a reaction to any current events affecting CD Projekt.
Rather, it is meant as insurance against future hypothetical scenarios which may never materialize. We wish to safeguard the interests of minority shareholders in a hypothetical case where a major shareholder emerges professing a business and strategic vision which conflicts with ours.
