Why has Warner Bros. Games Monolith Productions, Player First Games and WB San Diego closed?
Given this news, which continues to reaffirm the crisis through which the industry is going through, Warner Bros. Games has declared the following:
We have had to make very difficult decisions to structure our development and investment studies around the creation of the best possible games with our key franchises: Harry Potter, Mortal Kombat, DC y Game of Thrones. After considering it carefully, we will close three of our development studies: Monolith Productions, Player First Games and Warner Bros. Games San Diego.
It is a strategic management change and not a reflection of these teams or the talent in them. The development of the Wonder Woman video game of Monolith will not continue. Our hope was to offer the players and fans the highest possible quality experience for the iconic character, and unfortunately this is no longer possible within our strategic priorities.
This is another difficult decision, since we recognize Monolith's long story when offering epic experiences to fans through incredible games. We greatly admire the passion of the three teams and thank each employee for their contribution. Despite how difficult it is today, we are still centered and excited to re -produce high quality games for our passionate fans and developed by our world -class studies and get our game business to be profitable again and grow in 2025 and beyond.
