Speaking to GamesBeat, Lead designer Daniel Berlin said that the game had a clear goal to differentiate what we understand about WWI with the title He said: When we set out on this game, we wanted to depict not just the common view of what the war was like We wanted to challenge some preconceptions[...]

Well, I literally didn't expect any of this. It seems the the next Battlefield has leaked just a smidge early, and it's got a strange name and setting As reported by a leaked retail image on reddit, it seems like the next game is called Battlefield 1, and it looks set in an alternate WWI There[...]

There is a big Battlefield reveal event happening today, which is meant to show off the next mainline game in the franchise The word had been that the series would be making a hard turn into something else, perhaps WWI, so some expected a subtitle to the game. Well, read into this what you will[...]

After Disney took over the Star Wars licence, they quickly passed off video game duties, at least in the AAA space, to EA And, boy are EA capitalizing. On top of DICE's work on Battlefront, Uncharted's ex-creative lead Amy Hennig is working on another Star Wars game with Visceral. And now we can add yet another project to the[...]

There isn't much officially said about the game, at least in term of setting, so we will have to wait on that front.   The time time does feel right to head back in time, especially with CoD going a different way I like the idea of them both being distinct We'll find out next week exactly[...]

Last year, I wrote about a Mass Effect ride that was coming to the West Coast at California's Great America. Well, the ride is nearly here now It's been announced on Twitter that the '4K' ride, which is called New Earth will open next month On May 18th, theme park goers will be able to go[...]

Mirror's Edge Catalyst has been a little quiet of late as DICE try and get the game where it needs to be ahead of release That should all change with the impending beta for the game though, as players will finally get their hands on the game. However, in order to interpret the data from the[...]

After it took a while for the first bit of Star Wars: Battlefront DLC to hit, it seems that we are somewhat cooking now. …Or at least when it comes to announcements that is In an EA blog, it's been announced that the second bit of DLC for the online shooter is coming in June[...]

From interviews, to finical reports, the existence of the sequel hasn't been a guarded secret. But it all just got a whole lot more real as a teaser trailer has just popped up the sequel It doesn't reveal too much, except, well, a sword You could also take the monologue as hints to the game's story,[...]

At least socially, I personally found lots of their games to be pretty ready to explore what some might call 'liberal' story threads. Well, the rather right-winged Donald Trump has just retweeted a fan made edit of a Mass Effect trailer that uses the Illusive Man's speech, to highlight the grievances of the candidate's supporter[...]

Star Wars: Battlefront has a very pricey Season Pass, but the game has been pretty decent at providing free updates for every one The Battle of Jakku came just prior to The Force Awaken's release for free last year, and there have been other little bits added to the game as it has gone on. Some[...]

There is a sort of playful myth on the internet called the EA Sports Cover Curse While not true across the board, there is a trend of sportstars who make it on the cover of EA Sports titles going on to have disappointing results or mishaps after the announcement. Well, I'm not one to get superstitious,[...]

Mirror's Edge Catalyst is still a little out right now. It's not due til May, but we have begun to see lots more of the game recently. So, why not a

We've seen, what we have come to know as the new protagonist 'Pathfinder', in the reveal trailer for Mass Effect: Andromeda, but other than that, we haven't had a good look. Well, this art is now doing the rounds at the moment, showing the character's model up close This was actually posted in October, but was[...]

It's part of a trend of multiplayer focused games that is increasingly leaving those who love traditional narratives out in the cold. One of those players is Star Wars: The Force Awakens' own John Boyega, and he's taken to Twitter to ask if there could be a narrative put into in the game He tweeted EA[...]

Ever since the $50 Season Pass was announced, the question about what would be included in the Star Wars: Battlefront DLC has remained a mystery. However, that is no longer the case as the Outer Rim DLC has been detailed, revealing that Greedo and Nien Nunb will be the first extra heroes to join the game[...]

Mass Effect: Andromeda was meant to be one of the biggest releases of the year, but it has always felt like a distinct possibility that the game could get a delay before coming out. Well, that has come to pass Speaking at Morgan Stanley Technology, Media and Telecom Conference, EA CFO Blake Jorgensen revealed Mass Effect: Andromeda's release window[...]

We do know that, thanks to interviews and quarterly reports by EA and Respawn personnel, but the game has never been 'officially' announced. That's why it is very odd to see the game being advertised at places like GameStop already As spotted by Niall Maher (via GameSpot), advertising for the game has started showing up on[...]

One thing that I hear growing each year, is the sentiment that one of the big military shooter franchises should go back to the World War well It's been a while since we saw a AAA fps tackle the timeline, which were a dime a dozen back in the heyday of Medal of Honor. Well, according[...]

He took to Twitter to ask fans if they would want a game like that and on what? He tweeted the poll saying: Would you play a Dragon Age Tactics game? — Mark Darrah (@BioMarkDarrah) February 19, 2016 I mean, this is probably a poor indication as the nature of Twitter is that everyone will say yes, because it[...]

EA have announced that Titanfall 2 is currently set to come out sometime before March 31st 2017 Most people assumed that meant we'd be getting it some time in early 2017. But it seems perhaps there is a chance we could see it this year As spotted by Polygon, McFarlane Toys are going to be making Titanfall[...]

The first game was problematic though and never found quite the mainstream appeal it could of. I definitely think Mirror's Edge Catalyst could have it in it though To show that potential off, here is a new story trailer for the game It shows basically everyone being disappointed in Faith, but hey, she looks like she[...]

Mirror's Edge: Catalyst has actually been pretty quiet since we heard it was getting delayed from February to May not long ago That's actually probably a good sign, as it you'd hope that means DICE have gotten their heads down and are working. That silence won't be in place much longer though There will be some kind[...]

Sadly, that's been revealed to not be the case It seems like money on the table though, so it seems a bizarre choice not to utilize. We might have a reason for why it is the case now though In a recent investor call (via VideoGamer) it was said by EA that the reason that we[...]

EA are in for a big year I think The return of Mass Effect is going to be huge, its shooter bread and butter, Battlefield is set to return and  just a little outside of 2016, Titanfall 2 is looming in the background. It seems all of those might be coming somewhat close to each other[...]

EA have been one of the massive presences at E3 for many years The publisher has held a major press conference (after Microsoft on the Monday prior to the expo) and was the first thing you'd see when walking into the South Hall, a gargantuan booth covering all their wares for the next year. That won't[...]

Ever since the expensive $50 Star Wars: Battlefront Season Pass was announced, the question of what exactly fans would be getting as DLC has lingered It's been quite a while since the game came out, and up until now, we haven't heard anything. Well, that has now changed as DICE have revealed some of the maps[...]

Unravel is only a few short weeks away now, and I for one am really looking forward to it The platformer looks like a lot of fun and the art direction is just entirely charming. What is the actual gameplay though? It seems it'll mostly be focused on environmental puzzles, using your yarn to figure out[...]

EA Access seems like a pretty good deal The service lets you play a bunch of EA games that exist in a vault, as well as trial new ones and even get access to some before they release. Well, you can try the service out this week if you don't want to put your money down[...]

It's supposed to be a pretty generous beta, and will conclude on Monday. I like the first in the series, and if you really do want to try a shooter that is a little out there, I totaly encourage you to give this a shot It isn't going to cost you anything, so why not? [...]
