With BioWare dead, EA lays out its 'next chapter,' and it's pretty much as predicted: Guns and football are fine, and everything else is under the microscope
Following the closure of BioWare, Electronic Arts has announced a strategic shift focusing on its largest franchises like Battlefield, Apex Legends, and EA Sports FC, while reducing the scope of other projects. The company is pausing 'Project Lotus,' pausing development on the early-stage Mass Effect game, and cutting the Skate team, leading to significant layoffs and a negative sentiment towards the studio's future.
