Liz is extreme reliable destiny leaker. But still, acquisition rumours should be taken with a grain of salt.
Very much doubt it, especially about DG 2.
But if both of these things do eventually happen, they would not surprise me.

Well...on one hand id love CDPR to be owned by someone with proper quality control to make sure we dont get another Cyberpunk situation
on the other hand Days Gone 2? really? i mean if the PC and PS4/PS5 sales and the demand is there maybe would be enough for Sony to greenlight a sequel at Bend
we shall see i guess
Sony wanting Cyberpunk and Witcher wouldnt surprise me at all

but another thing is...would Sony really want to own GOG? idk seems like too much in my opinion
would that be in Sony's interest
Yeah, i like to see gaas witcher and gaas cyberpunk 
If we serious, while jimbo and hulst at top, sony can fuck off from CDPR.

They will do not do a major deal until this ABK case is cleared. Maybe small acquisitions like Firewalk to stay under the radar if needed. But some big studios or publisher will not be acquired as long Activision Blizzard deal is ongoing.
There was going to be a Cyberpunk 2077 multiplayer game from CDPR, but that got abandoned due to CP2077's bad launch.Yeah, i like to see gaas witcher and gaas cyberpunk

exactly,CDPR literally wanted to do GTA Online but in Cyberpunk
Hard to have good launch, when you are 2 years off from real game's launch.
Just look at Redfall, the same story.
It is crazy story with multiplayer, first they said, that they won't have it, years later confirmed it is being created, after launch they cancel it.
Wouldn’t leaking an acquisition before it’s done risk jeopardizing it? Unless it’s a done deal and Sony feels like they need some positive pr out in the ether after this week and just waiting to announce it? Or they don’t plan on buying them and it’s a red herring to have people talk about something else besides tlou development issues?
This rumor again. It keeps coming up. I'm starting to believe "someone" is getting CDPR for sure.
Hopefully it's Sony, if not I'm worried

They don’t own either Witcher nor Cyberpunk. Just licensed to create games. This would be a useless acquisition.
Sapkowski is the sole owner of the intellectual property. He has licensed others to use his IP as inspiration for TV/movies/games/comics/tabletop titles/etc. His word is final on what is canon and he has always stated only the books are canon.
What rating would day gone received today? Post patches, bugs ironed out, 60 frames per second. PS5. It’s a very refined game in it’s state today.
But he sold it to create games to CDPR.
The same way he sold it to nexflix. His word is final? Are you sure? By looking at Witcher Origins, are you sure?
No they own the full license for Witcher games, graphic novels, board games, and other associated merchandise
Sapkowski sold them the full game rights for a lump sum. He later complained and they agreed to pay him royalties too. Based on all those talk that came out of that situation, it doesn't sound like he has any ability to take back the rights
