According to a recent Bloomberg report, Warner Bros. has canceled an unannounced paid DLC for the popular game, *Hogwarts Legacy*. The expansion was initially planned to launch this year in conjunction with a "Definitive Edition" of the game. However, the decision to cancel came this week, reportedly because the content volume was deemed insufficient to justify the intended price point. Warner Bros. did not respond to Bloomberg's request for comment on this matter.
The cancellation of the *Hogwarts Legacy* DLC comes at a time when Warner Bros. is undergoing significant restructuring within its gaming division. This restructuring is part of broader efforts to address ongoing financial challenges. Earlier this year, the company made the tough decision to cancel its anticipated *Wonder Woman* game, which led to the closure of Monolith Productions, the studio behind the project. Additionally, Warner Bros. shut down WB San Diego and the studio responsible for *MultiVersus*, Player First Games. Last September, the company also announced layoffs at Rocksteady, further illustrating the scale of the restructuring efforts.
Despite these setbacks, Warner Bros. continues to emphasize the importance of *Hogwarts Legacy* and the broader Harry Potter franchise within its portfolio. The company has publicly stated that a sequel to *Hogwarts Legacy* is a top priority, reflecting their strategy to focus on fewer but more significant franchises. This commitment is underscored by the impressive sales figures of the original game, which has sold over 30 million copies, solidifying its position as a key asset for Warner Bros.
