EA CEO Andrew Wilson has said that the next Battlefield will be a game of the highest quality. He says that it is “one of the most ambitious projects in our history.” This quote comes from Wilson’s prepared remarks regarding EA’s first quarter 2025 financial results.
As you all know, the Battlefield series has had a rough time of it lately: an entire studio dedicated to a single-player Battlefield mode was fired earlier this year, and Battlefield 2042 hasn’t exactly won over longtime fans. On Steam, the game sits at an unenviable “Average” rating. Sure, the game has picked up steam over time, but there’s no denying that a new entry can’t get off to a false start again.
However, the future seems more than positive, listening to the CEO.
EA CEO’s Statements on Battlefield
“This is not only one of our top priorities, but also one of the most ambitious projects in our history. We have assembled the best team, with the resources and technology necessary to deliver an epic Battlefield experience.”
Despite the studio’s closure earlier this year, Wilson previously described the team working on the next Battlefield as “the largest Battlefield team in the history of the franchise,” with the goal of “building a Battlefield universe across connected multiplayer and single-player experiences.”
Wilson is encouraged by “our team’s unique ability to listen, learn and draw inspiration from the community to deepen their connection to the franchise,” a talent that has attracted “over 25 million players in the last 12 months.”
Overall, EA reported several drops in revenue, but these were stronger than expected.
