Labels boss says company has to "stay fresh and ahead of the curve"
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?
Atleast they're keeping It fresh
That's nice to hear. I do like sequels, but not at the expense of innovation.
Bring on the new IP's!
Edit: How about a new Road Rash. I loved that game on N64.
Fans: We want new IPs! We're sick of sequels.
EA: Okay, here's Mirror's Edge and Dead Space
Fans: We want sequels to Dead Space and Mirror's Edge!
EA: But I thought you wanted new IPs? Okay, here's Dead Space 2.
Fans: We want new IPs, not sequels, but we still want Mirror's Edge 2!
EA: MAKE UP YOUR FUCKIN' MIND!
If EA made a console, they'd have tHe most and best exclusives!!
They'd own everybody with the sports alone.
