In its financial report, the company led by Andrew Wilson referred to four games yet to be announced.
Electronic Arts will publish a significant IP and a remake in early 2023, alongside an EA Partners title, an EA Sports game and EA Sports PGA Tour. The four unnamed games “have not yet been publicly disclosed.” Here’s where things start to get a little weird. In the case of the remake, we’re guessing it could be the Dead Space Remake in the works at Motive, as the publisher has already confirmed that it will be released for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and PC in early 2023…
That would make sense, but this game is not on the list of games scheduled for release! Either the Dead Space Remake has been delayed (and that’s how we found out…), or this could be a completely different remake project that Electronic Arts hasn’t revealed yet. Since the publisher has a vast catalogue of games (and a considerable number of studios that have been executed…), it’s simply IMPOSSIBLE to speculate what it could be if it’s not a remake of Isaac Clarke’s adventure!
It was already mentioned here that Electronic Arts and FIFA have officially terminated their contract, so FIFA 23 will be the last from EA Sports. In the press release, Andrew Wilson wrote, “Our vision for EA Sports FC is to create the largest and most impactful football club globally, at the epicentre of football fandom. For nearly 30 years, we’ve been building the world’s biggest football community—with hundreds of millions of players, thousands of athlete partners, and hundreds of leagues, federations, and teams. EA Sports FC will be the club for every one of them and football fans everywhere.
According to a statement from Electronic Arts, “EA Sports FC will be the platform for EA to innovate, create, and grow new experiences. It will bring more areas of the sport to life, harness the collective strength of more than 150 million players across EA Sports’ global football games—and reach hundreds of millions of new fans in the years to come. EA Sports FC brings the strength of more than 300 individual licensed partners, giving players access to more than 19,000 athletes across 700 teams in 100 stadiums and over 30 leagues worldwide.
Through EA Sports FC, EA will further grow the reach and power of its football licensing portfolio by retaining and expanding the licensed football content, scaling to new experiences, and increasing access through more platforms. EA will also build on a foundation of inclusivity and innovate in new areas around both women’s and grassroots football for the global community. The introduction of EA Sports FC will not impact any current EA Sports international football games, and EA and FIFA are excited to deliver the most extraordinary, most expansive EA Sports FIFA ever later this fall. Our final FIFA product will also include more game modes, features, teams, leagues, players, and competitions than any previous edition. Fans will be able to experience these innovations across the complete EA Sports FIFA ecosystem, including FIFA Mobile, FIFA Online 4, and eSports.”
Wilson added, “We’re thankful for our many years of a great partnership with FIFA. The future of global football is very bright, and fandom worldwide has never been stronger. We have an incredible opportunity to put EA Sports FC at the heart of the sport and bring even more innovative and authentic experiences to the growing football audience.” What will the innovation be, Ultimate Team…? More details in the summer…
