So, Criterion have taken the driving seat in the Need for Speed camp. The Burnout team are making the final preparations for the release of their first venture into the "other" EA racing game franchise, and with the Hot Pursuit release date now just over a month away, press and public attendees at this year's Eurogamer Expo were able to play a eight player competitive online multiplayer mode which was a world exclusive at the event. But with Need for Speed struggling to really impress since Most Wanted, is it the new breath of life that this series desperately needs, or just a Burnout clone?
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.

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?
