Netflix announces the acquisition of Warner Bros

Today, Netflix announced the acquisition of Warner Bros for $82.7 billion.

After weeks of accepting bids from potential suitors, it was announced that Netflix is set to acquire Warner Bros in 2026. The deal is expected to close after Warner Bros. Discovery finalizes its split into two separate companies. Netflix will own Warner Bros. Games, which means studios such as Rocksteady, TT Games, NetherRealm, and Avalanche will likely all soon fall under the Netflix Games umbrella.

On X, we can read a statement from Netflix:

"Together, we’ll define the next century of storytelling, creating an extraordinary entertainment offering for audiences everywhere."
