Despite the recent underperforming Warner Bros. gaming division, DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn said the company is preparing for a massive advancement in the industry.However, he also pointed out that this advancement takes time to fully realize.In an interview, Gunn talked about the future of DC Studios and how he plans to expand the DC universe in video games.

In the interview, Gun admitted that he would launch some smaller DC games—probably akin to the recently announced LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight—but larger projects are also under development.

“There are some slight progress on different projects,” Gunn said. “We have a few small DC games coming soon. But we’ve also discussed — and are in the initial planning stage — some bigger projects. One of those things I’m particularly excited about, but it does take time. Warner Bros.’s gaming division has gone through some changes, so we’re playing with the new team.”

Although the specific meaning may be unclear, Gunn is likely to point to a long process that involves not only pure game development, but also other aspects of the business, such as getting the right proposal and finding adapted studios for a particular style of games.As for what the "larger project" in Warner Bros.'s future planning may include, we can only hope that it will not repeat the mistakes of a much-maligned service-oriented game like Suicide Squad: Eliminate Justice League.

Gunn and co-CEO Peter Safran previously said similarly: Large-scale games in the DC Universe will take time to develop, and players will have to wait a long time to play the next masterpiece.

“We’ll see design drafts in the early stages of the project,” Gunn said in February, according to IGN. “We’ll discuss these designs. When they look at the possible direction of the story, we’ll say ‘maybe you should adjust in that direction because we plan to do something with the character and so on’ and help with this kind of coordination.”

In May this year, Warner Bros. revealed in its quarterly earnings that its gaming division plummeted 48%.This slip may be attributed to the commercial failures of MultiVersus and Suicide Squad: Eliminate Justice League.The financial report also pointed out that games such as "Mortal Kombat 1" and "Legend of Hogwarts" continue to perform well.It should be noted that the statistical cycle of these revenue data is from January 1 to March 31, 2025.

Warner Bros.’s gaming division has experienced turmoil recently.In January this year, David Haddad, president of Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, announced his resignation.

In July, some job recruitment information showed that Warner Bros. may be developing a new service-oriented game based on the DC Universe.However, specific details have always been very rare.
