Are there other significant acquisitions ahead of us? The well-known journalist Imran Khan heard a lot of talk about this. Development studios Warner Bros. Discovery sold. So far, he has reported this only on Twitter, since confirmation from other sources could not be obtained.
WB Discovery is reportedly going through an internal restructuring and budget cuts to raise $3 billion. However, the sale should concern not only studios, but also intellectual propertyso we are talking about valuable and exciting licenses including Batman, Superman, Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings.
No one would be surprised if a merciless battle breaks out because of all this. Stakeholders include Microsoft and Sony, as well as Electronic Arts, Take-Two Interactive, Tencent, Netease, and PUBG Corp, according to Khan.
Couldn’t get enough confirmation to actually write a post about it, but heard some decent chatter this week that WB Discovery is eyeing its game development studios.

The WB Games division is made up of renowned teams. Between them Avalanche Software (Hogwarts Legacy) Monolith Productions (TV series “Middle-earth”, “Wonder Woman”) NetherRealm Studios (Mortal Kombat, Injustice), Rocksteady Studios (Batman: Arkham series), TT Games (LEGO video game) WB Games Montreal (Batman: Arkham Origins, Gotham Knights).
On the other hand, Khan’s report contradicts what Variety magazine sources have heard. According to them, Warner Bros. wants Discovery to maximize the value of the DC Entertainment division’s brand, which means, among other things, more games featuring characters from the DC world. So let’s see.
