Summary
WB Games
enterprise legacy
WBGAMES is WB Games Inc., the video-game arm of Warner Bros. (formerly Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment), the publisher behind franchises such as the Batman: Arkham and Mortal Kombat series. The AS carries a single corporate block, not a game-serving platform.
What it's used for
RIS sees one prefix, 168.161.225.0/24, 256 addresses, and one observed neighbour. No IPv6. That is the smallest meaningful BGP presence there is, and it rules out most of the things a games company's name might suggest: matchmaking, game servers and downloadable content at Warner's scale live on commercial clouds and CDNs, not on a single /24 behind a single upstream. What a block like this typically carries is studio and office infrastructure — VPN endpoints, build and publishing systems, a few public services — with the ASN present so the space can be multihomed or moved without renumbering.
The registrant looks like a mismatch and is not. ARIN records the /24 as TBS-TWEP, org Time Warner Enterprise Infrastructure Services LLC — the corporate IT entity of the old Time Warner group that WB Games has always sat inside. That is an intra-group registrant, ordinary post-merger paperwork rather than third-party address space, and it is the kind of thing that reads as suspicious only if the corporate history is ignored.
Notable
The reverse DNS confirms the group relationship from the other direction: sampled addresses resolve as 168.161.225.5.wbol.warnerbros.com — Warner Bros. Online naming on a block registered to Time Warner's infrastructure company and announced by an AS named for WB Games. Three names, one company.

Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-27, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

Classification and threat
Unclassified Not in the curated lists. Most of the ~80,000 allocated ASNs are not.
Spamhaus DROP
Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.
No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.
Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 447 networks and 1,852 prefixes, as published 2026-10-27. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
