Paramount Launches Paramount Games Studio

Paramount has launched a new games division called Paramount Games Studio.
The Big Play: Historically, Paramount has licensed its IP to outside game developers. But now, the studio is focused on making gaming a “core pillar” of its content offerings. With the gaming industry experiencing another growth surge this year — and gaming IP powering some of the biggest franchises of the post-pandemic era — Paramount knows it can’t afford to leave that money on the table.
Behind The Division: Paramount’s new leadership wants to make gaming as big a business as film and TV.
Paramount Games Studio combines Skydance’s existing game studios — Skydance Interactive and Skydance New Media — with Paramount’s library of IP.
The division will be led by Tony Driscoll, Paramount’s current head of corporate strategy and development.
Its first slate includes the in-development Skydance titles Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra and an untitled Star Wars game, along with a brand-new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin.
Final Level: Paramount Games Studio is set to get a fresh influx of IP and talent once Paramount completes its merger with Warner Bros. Discovery, which operates its own in-house gaming division, Warner Bros. Games. That could position it as the biggest Hollywood gaming studio outside of Sony.
Next Round: It’s possible that Disney — which has been interested in gaming for some time — could expand its partnership with Epic Games by exploring an acquisition. If so, 2026 may mark the beginning of a new era of gaming M&A.

Red light therapy for skin is well-known. For joints, it’s the recovery tool that’s quietly changing the game.
You’ve probably heard about red light therapy for skin. Maybe you’ve even tried it.
But your joints? That’s where things get interesting.
Red light alone works at the surface. Great for skin, but often not enough for joints. The Kineon Move+ combines red light with medical-grade lasers designed to penetrate deeper into tissue — where inflammation can build, where cartilage can break down, and where recovery can stall.
It’s a wearable device built specifically for joints. Not a panel. A medical-grade device that wraps directly around your knee, shoulder, or elbow and works while you move, rest, or recover.
For anyone serious about performance and longevity, joint health is often the limiting factor. Most people simply accept that. The Move+ is built for those who don’t.
