    I would venture to guess it’s to avoid potential licensing issues that could arise down the road that they don’t want to deal with.

      Were any characters in the game not owned by Warner Bros?

        Potentially, I don’t exactly know all the rights owners.

        But just looking at the roster, I’d assume Arya Stark might be the most complicated. While HBO falls under WB, unsure if ol’ George signed away all rights to the character. And there’s always future deals too, since rights holders can change hands.
