Overseeing games like Apex Legends, The Sims and more, EA are a pretty huge player in the games industry. Over the last two decades, they have regularly moved from a punching bag to the creator of the year's biggest game. This back and forth has led to the company feeling a slight bit unstable about its future. Despite pulling in billions, they are currently looking to sell or merge with a bigger company. Here's what we know so far.
EA looking to sell or merge
In a piece from Puck News, they reveal that several sources have told them EA are looking to sell or merge, going into the future. This is inspired by the amount of acquisitions going on throughout the industry. It seems like it's quite alarming to big publishers - worried they may lose out on the opportunity to join a bigger more successful company.
This is undeniably pretty huge for the industry. EA are one of the biggest publishers in the industry, overseeing games like:
- Madden
- Fifa (until recently)
- It Takes Two
- Need for Speed
- Star Wars Games
- Battlefield
- The Sims
- Apex Legends
- Mass Effect
- Lost in Random
