Discovery is making drastic cuts to its gaming division, canceling the highly anticipated Wonder Woman game and shutting down three of its studios: Monolith Productions, Player First Games, and Warner Bros. Player First Games, the studio behind MultiVersus, will also be closing, further highlighting the challenges WB Games has faced. Games San Diego, which has worked on various multiplayer projects, is also being shut down. Games emphasized that the decision is "not a reflection of the talent within these teams" but rather a strategic move to return the gaming division to profitability in 2025 and beyond. These shutdowns mark another rough chapter for WB Games, following the failure of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, which struggled with poor player reception and is already seeing support scaled back less than a year after launch. As WB continues restructuring its gaming division, the industry watches closely to see what direction the company will take next. These past months have been a big blast for the gaming community with the launch of big games like Resident Evil 7, Nioh, For Honor, and Horizon Zero Dawn. It's not over yet though as more games are launching next month. Read more in our articles including "Warner Bros.
