Key facts and history
In February 2009, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment acquired the studio.[2] That game was released for Xbox and PlayStation 2, targeting the previous generation of consoles.[1] The Nintendo DS version also used its own engine.[1] The studio's original location was Bothell, Washington.[2]
Following the acquisition by Warner Bros., the studio moved to Kirkland, Washington.[2] Using that same engine, the studio developed Justice League Heroes in 2006.[1] The PlayStation Portable received a portable version of the engine.[1] A separate engine was used for the Game Boy Advance title Justice League Heroes: The Flash.[1]
