Warner Bros’ future in the gaming industry seemed to be uncertain in the past few years, but now it seems like WB will come back to the gaming world again. According to some reports and rumors, Warner. Bros Games is currently working on a super Smash Bros-style game known as Multiverse. The title will feature a range of popular characters from multiple successful franchises, including Gandalf, Shaggy, and Batman.

According to the initial Reddit leak, Warner Bros is currently developing a Super Smash Bros. style game and apparently, it has been in its early development stage for quite a while now. The leaker also claims that it is “a tag team game.” The Reddit leaker updated the original post after a few hours to add a link bearing some details regarding a trademark associated with WB.

Warner Bros is planning a big comeback?

The crazy rumor that was first started from the Reddit page caught immense attention from the gaming community in a short amount of time. The main leaker refused to give any kind of proof/logical explanation to support the claim. But interestingly, the leak was backed up by none other than journalist Jeff Grubb (barring one part).

According to Jeff Grubb, the crossover platform fighter is in its early development stage and will be announced soon. However, contrary to what the Reddit leak claims, the game’s major developers are not NetherRealm Studios.

Of course, Warner Bros has officially confirmed nothing at this point in time, and it’s better to take everything with a grain of salt. However, if this has been backed up by Jeff Grubb, then there must be something big going on. Warner Bros has previously said that they are planning to focus more on game development regarding IP that is already owned by Warner Bros. So making a title with multiple loved and popular characters from different franchises is quite an interesting idea.
