The news of WarnerMedia\\u2019s merger with Discovery has left questions about WB Interactive. Some studios are reportedly staying with AT&T (which wants out of original content), and we don\\u2019t know yet if Discovery has any interest in staying in the games business. We could be looking at an M&A feeding frenzy for WBIE\\u2019s 11 owned studios in the coming months. Also: Take-Two and Embracer earnings, Twitch PR stumbles, and the last week of Epic v Apple.
