Warner Bros split its games division into four parts for major movie brands. The company focuses on Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, Mortal Kombat and DC Universe games. Three former studio leaders received promotions to run different franchise groups. Yves Lachance manages Harry Potter and Game of Thrones projects as senior vice president. Shaun Himmerick oversees Mortal Kombat and DC Universe games.
Steven Flenory became senior vice president for technology and services across all studios. Game developers report to either Lachance or Himmerick based on their projects. Avalanche Software creating Hogwarts Legacy sequels answers to Lachance. Rocksteady working on DC games reports to Himmerick. All three leaders work under CEO JB Perrette.
The restructure happened without job cuts or executive departures. Warner Bros wants long-term plans for its biggest entertainment properties. The company suffered poor game sales earlier this year. Games like Suicide Squad disappointed fans and hurt revenues. Warner Bros closed several studios after recent failures.
