Suicide Squad Game Falls Short as Warner Bros Struggles with New Gaming Approach
• Suicide Squad video game has not met Warner Bros' sales expectations, indicating a "tough year" for their gaming division • Failure can't be blamed on new WB CEO David Zaslav; game was in development before his tenure • Zaslav believes live service games with ongoing monetization are the future to maximize revenue • Suicide Squad embodies what Zaslav wants - live service, monetization - but players don't want that • Hogwarts Legacy, with no live service or monetization beyond initial purchase, was a huge success, indicating players want self-contained games
