Warner Bros. Games reportedly cancels expanded content for Hogwarts LegacyUnannounced DLC and definitive edition allegedly scrapped "as part of ongoing restructuring"Image credit: Avalanche Software News by Sophie McEvoy Staff Writer Published on March 28, 2025 Warner Bros. Games has reportedly cancelled an unannounced expansion for Hogwarts Legacy due for release later this year.This is according to Bloomberg, with sources telling the publication that the paid DLC and a definitive edition of the game were scrapped "as part of ongoing restructuring."Sources told Bloomberg that the project was allegedly cancelled as the content was "not substantial enough to justify the price being considered."Warner Bros. declined to comment to Bloomberg about the reported expansion.Insider Gaming reported that the DLC was supposedly planned to have between ten to 15 hours of new quests and activities.In a letter to shareholders following its most recent financial results, Warner Bros. described 2024 as a "disappointing year" for its games segment. Revenue for Warner Bros. Games dropped 29% year-on-year during its fourth quarter.Before its Q4 report, it implemented a restructuring plan resulting in the closure of three studios Monolith Productions, Player First Games, and Warner Bros. San Diego. Monolith's upcoming Wonder Woman project was cancelled as a result.The firm described its restructuring plan as a chance "to refocus [its] resources and capital on proven IP and games from proven, world class studios."It added: "We are focusing our games business around four tentpole franchises that have each generated $1 billion in consumer sales in past years: Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, Mortal Kombat, and DC."Warner Bros. Games said the success of Hogwarts Legacy was the main driver for its "refocused strategy.""This gives us the confidence that with our refocused strategy, we can get back to producing high-quality games built for long-term consumer engagement, which we expect to propel our games division back to profit in 2025 and emerge as a more significant contributor to growth in the years ahead," the company concluded.
