After the harsh setback that was Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, many thought that Warner Bros. Interactive would take a step back in its strategy focused on games as a service. However, everything indicates that the studio has not thrown in the towel. According to a recent job posting by WB Games, a new project is already in the works, set in the DC universe and focused on online multiplayer.

The vacancy is looking for an executive producer with experience in AAA titles to lead the “development of a high-quality game based on one of Warner Bros.’ and DC Comics’ most iconic IPs”, with a clear focus on the live service model. Everything points to an ambitious bet that aims to stay for the long haul, both in content and community.

Warner Bros. doesn’t give up on its DC multiplayer vision

• According to the job description, the goal is to create a “first-class gaming experience” that stands out for its innovation, player engagement, and overall quality. The executive producer will have to guide the project from conception to launch, working closely with the creative team and ensuring that deadlines, budget, and company standards are met.

This initiative suggests that, despite the disappointing performance of Kill the Justice League, WB is still committed to turning the DC universe into a platform for games as a service. Details about the setting or characters that will star in this new title are not yet known, but it is confirmed that the intention is to build a solid and lasting foundation, with special attention to community participation.

In addition to the DC universe, Warner Bros. also has active plans around other franchises such as Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, and Mortal Kombat, all of which have potential for multiplayer projects or persistent services. Time will tell if this new attempt manages to break the trend and offer a proposal that truly connects with players.
