According to the announcement, Warner Bros. Games will be shutting down the studios responsible for creating “Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor” and “Middle-earth: Shadow of War,” namely Monolith Productions, as well as “MultiVersus” developer Player First Games and Warner Bros. Games San Diego. Additionally, the development on Monolith Productions’ announced 2021 “Wonder Woman” game has been halted.
Here is the full statement from Warner Bros. Games on the closures, via Kotaku’s Ethan Gach:
To optimize our game production and maximize investment in top franchises like Harry Potter, Mortal Kombat, DC, and Game of Thrones, we’ve had to reorganize our development studios. Regrettably, Monolith Productions, Player First Games, and Warner Bros. Games San Diego will be closing. This shift in strategy should not be interpreted as a comment on the quality of these teams or the skills they possess; rather, it’s about focusing on new opportunities ahead.
Regrettably, the progress on Monolith’s “Wonder Woman” video game has been halted. Our aim was to provide players and enthusiasts with an exceptional experience featuring this legendary character; however, it no longer aligns with our strategic objectives. Making this choice is difficult, as we acknowledge Monolith’s rich history of creating captivating games that delight fans.
We deeply appreciate the fervor displayed by each of the three teams, and we extend our gratitude to every team member for their valuable contributions. Despite the challenges we face today, we stay committed and enthusiastic about resuming the creation of exceptional games for our dedicated fanbase, as well as restoring profitability and growth to our gaming division in 2025 and beyond, through the efforts of our top-tier studios.
