CD Projekt RED S.A. (Polish pronunciation: [ʦ̑ɛ‿ˈdɛ ˈprɔjɛkt rɛd]; WSECDR) is a Polish video game publisher and developer. The company was founded in February 2002 (2002-02) as a development studio of CD Projekt Sp. z o.o.. The first game the unit produced is The Witcher, based on Andrzej Sapkowski's books.

In February 2008, CD Projekt RED's parent company CD Projekt Sp. z o.o. acquired Metropolis Software development studio, which was subsequently merged with CD Projekt RED.[3]

History

After the international success of The Witcher, CD Projekt changed its focus to game development. In 2008, CD Projekt group companies became part of a newly created holding company, CDP Investment Sp. z o.o. Soon thereafter, in what is known as reverse takeover, CDP Investment merged with Optimus S.A., a public company listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. In October 2011 (2011-10), CD Projekt RED Sp. z o.o. merged with CD Projekt RED S.A. and became the dominant part of the group.[1]
