Any licensed character can leave DbD any time if they don't make new deal.
But for your question, no. Bubba is not going anywhere for now. TCM game won't make him leave.

if you already have it, even if he leaves, I assume it will be a stranger things situation.

No. He's probably thinking about when Bubba perk renames were leaked. From what I understand, it was a trap to catch the leaker, and he wasn't actually leaving.

Thanks I don't have Twitter so I didn't know. this info was very useful.

There was a rumor he was leaving a few months ago because people like to stir up unnecessary drama. DBD devs said he's not going anywhere. TCM devs said if he were to leave DBD it wouldn't be because of TCM game.

Which makes the fact that we got people like Dvveet from dbdleaks on twitter still trying to act like both that and the Stranger Things returning leak was still correct all along by making two massive tweet threads to explain why they were correct all along despite both not being so all the more funny.

From what I've heard, it's a little different. When it was time to re-negotiate the license, BHVR initially didn't want to renew it, which is why the placeholders showed up on PTB. However, when DBDLeaks claimed Bubba was going to be discontinued, BHVR changed their plan and re-licensed him, as they could now use this to discredit leaks.

Their whole explanation behind why bubba didn't leave after all is nothing but speculation on their part purely based on an assumption that the perk changes in the files was actually going to be implemented, there was never any actual concrete evidence that it was gonna happen other than just that, an assumption treated as a fact.
Also the TCM devs has said that if Bubba leaves dbd then it won't be because of their game which directly contradict dbdleak's explaination, as well as Mathieu Cote himself has straight up said in his interview with Slasher Radio that they never wanted to remove content in the first place.
But no, watch as people from dbdleaks refusing to take the L and continue to act like they were still right in the end despite the leak not being so out of pure copium.

Well, from what I recall, that was their 'most likely reason why', not what they stated was the actual, matter-of-fact reason. But also, TCM devs are not the proprietors of the TCM license, are they?
as well as Mathieu Cote himself has straight up said in his interview with Slasher Radio that they never wanted to remove content in the first place.
Okay, but BHVR has lied before, so I don't think Mathieu's word is infallible.

Why would bhvr lie about not wanting to lose content that makes them money? That makes 0 sense, especially as Mathieu has as a matter of fact even stated that they've tried to bring Stranger Things back as a time-limited offer, however that never panned out because Netflix straight up ignored them. I have no reason to doubt Mathieu's words on this and neither do i believe that they would want to lose any of their other licenses (Leatherface especially) when they've repeatedly called dbd the hall of fame of horror. Also Cote has gone on record stating in another interview that while it's not always possible to keep the option of licensed dlcs being available to be purchasable, they will fight tooth and nail to keep the option of being able to buy them available.
Also tell me this, was there ever any actual concrete evidence of gun getting exclusive rights to use tcm for video games that would cause Bubba to be pulled from DBD or any other game?
Was there ever any actual concrete evidence other than one post about Bubba's perks becoming universal perks that never ended up happening in the end which dbdleaks had nothing but assumptions and speculations to back their claims up with?
Was there any actual evidence behind dbdleak's claim of what bhvr was or wasn't gonna do or what the license holder would or wouldn't do with the license agreement bhvr has with them? Because they could not know unless they have a direct leak of a conversation between both parties or some leak of the contract bhvr has with the license holder.
As far as i can tell, they don't actually know anything of actuality behind what or why Bubba's perks appeared as universal perks in the game files and just assumed he was getting removed because that's what happened with Demo's perks, however as we can clearly see that it wasn't the case and yet they try to act like they were still right in the end by giving us a bunch of speculating reasons for why what happened the way it did which they can't backup with a single shred of concrete proof.

Attack on Titan and Stranger Things. Both licenses gone because BHVR could not make new deal or they did not want to.

Any licenser can decide to pull out at any given time, and at that point it's out of BHVR's hands. Especially with a live service game, there's no such thing as a permanent license. At the same time, however, players are entitled to the content they've purchased. Which is why players who bought the ST characters and skins get to keep them, but the map had to be removed entirely.
Regarding ST, the consensus remains that it was Netflix that pulled out after 2 years, in favour of spending resources into their own dead-in-the-water gaming service. Mathieu himself has stated that, despite BHVR's efforts, there doesn't seem to be any chance of them regaining the license, because Netflix has outright ignored their inquiries.

May I ask where you got the impression that licenses can be permanent? I've never heard of that one.
As for my source, I believe it was mentioned in that one interview PaulieEsther (and someone else?) had with Côte, but I might be wrong there.
Regardless, it's all mostly speculation on our end anyway. What with NDA's 'n all.

They tried to keep the ip Netflix was the one who didn't pick up the phone

Licensers can only pull out if a contract ends and they choose not to renew or if Bhvr breaches a contract somehow. Unless you're suggesting Bhvr signs contracts that say the licenser can pull out at anytime, but I don't think that's the case.
Why would Netflix be upset with how demo was presented? He's always been a solid, well-liked killer. This was almost guaranteed to be about money and them wanting to make their own Stranger Things game.

You’re right, what I was saying was too simplified. Regardless, the license holder is still within their right to just not extend the contract at some point, and since we’d never know when the thing was signed in the first place, that may appear as random to us players.
