WB Games Seeks Executive Producer for New AAA Live-Service Title

WB Games Reportedly Developing New AAA Live-Service Title

Despite the considerable financial and critical setback of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, it appears Warner Bros. Games is doubling down on its commitment to the live-service model. A recent job posting on the WB Games Montréal website indicates the studio is seeking an Executive Producer for an unannounced AAA project, described as a full-cycle game from concept to post-release support, requiring prior experience with live-service models.

While the specific game title remains under wraps, the job description clearly states it will be a AAA-tier project based on one of Warner Bros.'s or DC Comics' iconic franchises. This news comes on the heels of the highly publicized failure of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. The team-based shooter garnered mixed-to-negative reviews from players and critics alike, significantly underperformed in sales, and became a major commercial flop for WB, reportedly incurring losses in the hundreds of millions of dollars.

The fallout from Suicide Squad's launch was swift and severe. Warner Bros. Games saw widespread layoffs, the cancellation of other planned projects (including a rumored Wonder Woman game), and even the closure of Monolith Productions. The company's gaming division reported a significant 48% drop in revenue during the first quarter of 2025, highlighting the deep impact of the game's poor performance.

The question now looms: will WB Games be able to learn from past mistakes and successfully launch a compelling live-service experience, or will history repeat itself? While the path forward is uncertain, what is clear is that Warner Bros. Games intends to focus its efforts on four key franchises moving forward. Players will be watching closely to see if this new direction can revitalize the publisher's gaming fortunes and deliver the engaging experiences they hope for.
