Warner Bros, which cancelled its projects in the DC Comics universe, has turned its route to the world of Game of Thrones. Sources familiar with the studio’s plans have revealed that the focus is on a new project for the popular series.
Warner Bros. turns to Game of Thrones after DC projects
According to recent reports, the developer was working on game concepts featuring DC heroes such as The Flash and possibly John Constantine. However, due to budget constraints and development schedules, these projects did not move forward.
The failure of The Flash movie to achieve the expected success at the box office also contributed to the cancellation of the game project. Now it is thought that the studio is preparing a project for a game set in the Game of Thrones universe.
This move seems to be in line with Warner Bros. Discovery’s investment in the series, including the ongoing House of the Dragon series. This shift comes at a challenging time for Warner Bros.’ gaming division.
The company’s recent big-budget productions, especially Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, have received heavy criticism from gamers. It also fell short of commercial expectations. This damaged Warner Bros’ reputation in the gaming industry.
The Game of Thrones game to be developed by the Gotham Knights team has already aroused great interest on social media. The mythology and characters of the series offer significant potential for an immersive game adaptation. Of course, let us remind you that no official announcement has been made yet.
