It looks like Warner Bros. Games may have something new in the works—something we haven’t seen before. According to recent updates spotted on LinkedIn, the studio appears to be preparing for the launch of a brand-new, unannounced IP set to release in 2025.

The clue comes from the profile of Brandon Maraia, a Game Design Lead at WB Games Boston. Maraia’s resume reveals that he’s been working since 2023 as the Manager of Game Design for a “new unannounced IP game” targeting a 2025 release. His role reportedly focuses on first-time user experience, narrative design, quests, and player customization—indicators of a title with strong storytelling and RPG-style elements.

While no official announcement has been made, the timing and nature of the work suggest that Warner Bros. is gearing up for something bigger than just another spin-off or update to an existing series.

A New Direction?

This comes at a critical time for Warner Bros. Games, which has undergone significant internal restructuring in recent months. Several of its studios—including Player First Games and WB Games San Diego—have faced layoffs or closures, and earlier reports indicated the company would begin focusing heavily on its proven franchises like Mortal Kombat, Hogwarts Legacy, and various DC properties.

Still, the mention of a completely new IP stands out, especially amid a market increasingly dominated by sequels and reboots. Whether this upcoming title connects to existing Warner Bros. universes or paves the way for an original world remains unclear.

What Could It Be?

With WB’s extensive catalog of entertainment properties—ranging from Game of Thrones to The Matrix and even Looney Tunes—speculation is already running wild. However, there’s also a real chance this could be something entirely new, designed to stand on its own in a competitive gaming landscape.

No other details are available at this time, but a 2025 release window suggests we may get an official reveal later this year, potentially around Summer Game Fest or Gamescom.

For now, fans will have to keep their eyes peeled. One thing’s for sure—Warner Bros. Games isn’t done surprising us just yet.
