The Warner Bros. Games Division has been reorganized and has become a gaming division focusing on four major series, namely Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, Mortal Kombat and DC Universe.Coincidentally, EA Entertainment previously stated that it will only focus on a few IPs in the future, including IPs such as Battlefield, Need for Speed, Apex Heroes, and Skateboard.

On Tuesday, Warner Bros. confirmed that it has promoted Yves Lachance, head of the Montreal studio of Warner Bros., to oversee the development of Harry Potter and Game of Thrones related games; and Shaun Himmerick, head of the studio of NetherRealm, will be responsible for the management of Mortal Kombat and DC games.

The reorganization occurred during a period of massive adjustments in Warner Bros.’s gaming division.Earlier this year, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment president David Haddad left after 12 years in office.

Then last month, Warner announced the closure of three in-house game development studios and canceled the Wonder Woman game project.

Monolith Productions studio, which has developed "Midearth: Shadow of Mordor" and "Midearth: Shadow of War", was closed, and its "Wonder Woman" game under development was also called off.Player First Games studio, which is in charge of "Warner Battle", and WB San Diego studio, which focuses on mobile platforms, have also been closed one after another.

Parent company Warner Bros. Discovery announced this month that it plans to split into two companies by mid-2026: "WBD Streaming and Film, Game Studios" and "WBD Global Network."

"Our company has some of the most influential brands in the world, and we are optimizing our team structure and developing a long-term development roadmap to impress players and fans of Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, Mortal Kombat and DC games," said J.B. Perrette, CEO of Global Streaming and Games at Warner Bros. Exploration, in an interview with Variety magazine. "We are very lucky to have a strong development and technical talent pool. Yves, Sean and Steven are all leaders with outstanding achievements in their respective fields of expertise. I look forward to working closely with them and the team to create the best games for our core series."
