Last week, rumors surfaced about RealTime World's financial woes. The company was said to be laying off the entire staff working on their freshly announced game MyWorld. Word just reached us that this was not enough to save the studio.
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?
Ouch, good luck to those that need it.
terrible choices will ruin the studio
How could they not see it coming? They refused to listen to advice from the very beginning of beta stressing the need for basics like decent driving, shooting and being actually able to PLAY the game as a crim without cops being dispatched on you every other minute.
Beep, thats bad, I've been playing APB since the privet BETA and really enjoy the game, heartbreaking news for me,
The game itself is pretty bad yeah but its actually fun one of few games that really is fun and can just be pick up and play. Tis a shame tbh :(
