Warner Bros. Games has become the owner of another gaming team. It announced the purchase of Player First Games, the studio that developed the fighting game MultiVersus.
We have worked with Player First Games over several years to create and launch MultiVersus, and we are very pleased to welcome this talented team to Warner Bros. Games. The bright and creative team at Player First Games adds to our extensive development capabilities.
David Haddad, President, Warner Bros. Games
The amount and full terms of the deal are unknown. Player First Games founders Tony Huynh and Chris White will continue to run the studio, but they will now report to Carlos Barbosa, vice president of Warner Bros. Games San Diego. Warner Bros. Discovery was the publisher of MultiVersus, and many characters in the fighting game were created under its licenses.
Our team is excited to join the Warner Bros. Games family, and we feel that this will be great for MultiVersus overall. We are working to make the MultiVersus game experience the best it can be and having our development team integrated with the publisher is optimum for the players
Tony Huynh, CEO and CoFounder at Player First Games
