Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment – owner of studios such as Rocksteady and NetherRealm – has a new suitor in its possible sale: Microsoft.
Last month, WBIE owner AT&T was reported to be seeking a sale of Warner’s huge gaming division for around $4bn (£3.1bn) in a bid to reduce company debts of $165bn (£131bn).
Take-Two, Electronic Arts and Activision Blizzard all initially expressed interest, but no deal was thought imminent.
