How does a tax break work here? Do they claim lost potential profits (as the games are no longer available) or lost the franchise or what?

I think it’s more they don’t want to pay to upkeep them.

Owen Dreery told arstechnica…

“Even if a game is making no sales they still need to track those numbers, send sales reports to developers, generate international taxation documents for Canadians like me… etc. And who at WB is going to defend these indie games? Adult Swim Games is gone. To me it’s as simple as ‘Let’s get rid of these niche products made by people who no longer work here which I don’t care about.’”
