Despite the painful setback, Warner Bros. isn't giving up on video games, a $262 billion global industry, according to PwC, that
will grow to $312 billion in 2027. During the February meeting in London, Haddad said that Warner Bros. Games was looking to do more collaboration between its dozen studios and that the company was understaffed compared to competing publishers, so job cuts at Rocksteady wouldn't make sense.
Many of the studio's employees are now helping to develop a new "director's cut" version of Hogwarts Legacy. At the same time, according to people familiar, the studio leaders are looking to pitch a new single-player game, which would return Rocksteady to its roots.
