WB Games David Haddad said in an interview with Axios that there would be no changes to the gaming department and its titles that will come soon in the future amidst the change in management. There have been significant changes to the company since Warner Bros. Discovery came to light, but it will not affect its games development ventures.
Haddad clarified that there had been no layoffs from WB Games' department, and employees got to keep their jobs because the division is profitable and sees significant development for its projects.
Moreover, future games are also unaffected by the changes in management, especially as there have been previous reports of layoffs and redirection for the allocation and budget.

Alongside this new development for Warner Bros. Games, the soon-released title under the Wizarding World's experience, "Hogwarts Legacy" Collector's Edition, is now available for pre-order to the public. It is now available from different retailers like Best Buy and GameStop, offering the game's premium package for $299.99.

Warner Bros. Games and its Titles
The recent merger of Warner Bros. and Discovery brought massive changes to the company. Both are still transitioning to focus on current and future ventures for their media content for the world. Several titles were canceled in this development, and one of them was the supposed "Batgirl" movie that would star Leslie Grace as Barbara Gordon and J.K. Simmons as Detective Jim Gordon.
It was a massive dispute for DC fans as they were excited to see a member of the Bat family know an introduction to its extended universe, which would not be available in the present.
News is now focusing on its shift to games, particularly that of the titles currently under development from WB Games, including previous titles announced in the DC FanDome, and other showcases. It includes the likes of "Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League" with Rocksteady Studios, "MultiVersus" from Player First Games, "Gotham Knights," and more.
No games are canceled in the new venture by the merger of both companies, and it will keep its current setup with the different developers that will bring the titles in the future. Alongside this, a new development for the "Hogwarts Legacy" appeared for the world, especially with its Collector's Edition's availability for all.
