Bruh, Warner Bros. Games just belly-flopped so hard with Suicide Squad and MultiVersus that shareholders probably started seeing green-haired Joker hallucinations. That 2024 Suicide Squad disaster? More like Suicide Mission—shutting down faster than a Diagon Alley shop during Death Eater hour! And don’t get ’em started on MultiVersus! That platform fighter got KO’d quicker than a kombatant facing Scorpion’s spear. So now, like a phoenix rising from dumpster-fire ashes, the mega-publisher’s shoving all its galleons on four golden snitches: Harry Potter, Mortal Kombat, DC, and Game of Thrones. Desperate? Maybe. Genius? Ask us in 2026 when we’re either weeping or popping Butterbeer corks.

The Fab Four Franchise Salvation Squad

Warner’s CEO J.B. Perrette ain’t playing—he’s basically Gandalf assembling the Fellowship:

• 🔥 Mortal Kombat & DC Universe: Under Shaun Himmerick’s bloody gauntlet (that NetherRealm magic better work on Superman)

• 🐉 Game of Thrones & Harry Potter: WB Montreal’s boss juggling dragons and dementors (good luck sleeping, pal)

Perrette’s all like, "We’ve got Yves, Shaun, Steven—total legends!" Cool story, but after 2024’s trainwrecks? Fans are side-eyeing harder than Snape catching Harry in the Restricted Section.

Game of Thrones: War for Westeros – Bold or Bonkers?

Announced at Summer Game Fest ’25, this RTS gem’s got split reactions:

• 😍 Strategy nerds: "Finally! My House Tully army shall conquer!"

• 😒 Everyone else: "An RTS in 2026? Did they time-travel from 1998?"

Launching with single-player and chaotic PvP? Sure. But let’s be real—adapting GoT games has been trickier than outsmarting Littlefinger. If this flops, winter isn’t coming… it’s already here.

Hogwarts Legacy 2: The 34 Million Copy Elephant in the Room

Hogwarts Legacy didn’t just sell—it apparated straight into history books with 34 million copies by March 2025. But the sequel’s shadow? Darker than a dementor’s kiss thanks to live-service rumors. Fans are sweating:

• 🎮 "Don’t turn my wand into a subscription!"

• 💸 "If I see one microtransaction in Hogsmeade, I riot!"

Zero release dates? Typical WB suspense—worse than waiting for the Sorting Hat.

Future Outlook: A Prophet’s Hot Take

Look, this restructuring feels like Molly Weasley’s clock—all hands pointing to Mortal Peril. If WB nails Hogwarts Legacy 2 sans live-service garbage? Golden. But if Shaun Himmerick can’t resurrect DC from Suicide Squad’s grave? Or if Westeros’ RTS feels like homework? Yikes. Personally? I’m betting three sickles they’ll fumble DC again but crush it with Potter. The real dark horse? Mortal Kombat. That franchise’s got more lives than Voldemort’s horcruxes. Stay tuned, gamers—this circus is just warming up.
