Alright, so here we go—let’s dive into this odd little world of Warner Bros and their shuffling madness. Picture this: they’ve decided to shake things up like a snow globe, making it rain IP-specific bits—whatever that means. Variety spilled the beans, saying Warner Bros has carved itself into chunks dedicated to DC, Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, and Mortal Kombat. Yeah, sounds kind of neat.
So, get this—Yves Lachance, who used to steer the ship over at Games Montréal, is now the big cheese for Harry Potter and Game of Thrones. I can’t help but wonder if wizard school and Westeros are somehow linked in his mind. And then there’s Shaun Himmerick, the dude over at NetherRealm, who’s now wearing the crown for Mortal Kombat and DC. Fatalities mingling with capes, I guess! Lastly, Steven Flenory from New York is now the go-to guy for central tech and stuff. If that sounds as dry to you as it does to me, well, welcome to the club.
J.B. Perrette, the big boss of global games and streaming, had a lot to say. Basically, they’re all set to craft epic roadmaps (but hopefully not the boring kind) for these famous worlds. He seems super stoked about the team and apparently, Yves, Shaun, and Steven aren’t just names but legends in their own right. I mean, who wouldn’t want to work with them, right? Here’s hoping they whip up some magic, quite literally, and take these games to new heights. Or at least, that’s the plan.
