EDGE: "With a new generation about to appear, the buzzword trick of slapping a sheen of the new to familiar concepts seems wrongly placed. Isn’t this year, of all years, meant to bring us boatloads of genuinely new things?
At Gamescom, EA is answering this question with no big new announcements, but a lot of promises for what the next generation holds. That’s not to say that its roster of games for the coming twelve months haven’t any ambition or verve, but what it says about EA’s vision for the next generation is definitely telling."
EA just hosted its quarterly financial conference call, and its executives have been asked to comment about the recent price hikes for games.
Today, Electronic Arts announced its financial results for the fourth quarter of its fiscal year 2025, alongside the full year.
Split Fiction has sold nearly 4 million copies, and the next battlefield is confirmed for a release by March 2026 with a reveal this Summer.
In addition to the roughly 100 job cuts IGN reported earlier today at Respawn Entertainment, EA has made wider cuts across its organization today, impacting around 300 individuals total including those already reported at Respawn.
Absolutely insane. Man I'm hope they land on their feet EA needs to get the shit together badly....
This is why this industry has slow releases and none compelling games.
Why would anyone willingly work in the VG industry or specifically for one of these globocorp organizations that put you in constant fear of losing your livelihood based on terrible choices made by idiotic management, not the people with talent making the actual games?
One thing I would say about EA is they do their conferences like pantomimes. The UFC intro thing was extremely uncomfortable to watch and it didn't stop their (BF player talk thing). I think EA has some good franchises that could do the talking for them. EA you don't need to add these awkward moments.
I was expecting EA to reveal something new but that didn't happen
the new bf4 map looks cool i thought...
