Techland insists no, it hasn't been acquired by "another publisher"

Techland’s community manager has denied rumours that the Dying Light 2 developer has been taken over by an unknown third-party and insists it remains an “independent studio”.

“I’m getting a lot of dm’s about Dying Light acquisition so I’ll answer here,” tweeted Techland’s community manager, “Uncy”, responding to recent speculation that the company had been acquired by another publisher.

“There was the same rumour floating around the internet one year ago and the situation didn’t change – Techland is an independent studio and it was not acquired by another publisher.”

When fans pushed back, insisting Techland would likely deny an acquisition right up until it had gone through, Uncy added in a separate comment: “People will believe what they want to believe, we had the exact same situation one year ago and people kept saying that the statements must be fake and the acquisition is happening. Guess where are we now. I posted this to clear the confusion in my dm’s, that’s all.”
