the next financial year.

Expected Releases
From a video games analyst named Daniel Ahmed. We have our hands on a pipeline which outlines EA’s future plans to release games over the next year.
There are “Four sports titles” expected to release. This will include both FIFA and Madden.

However, we are unsure as to what the other 2 sports-based games could be.
We can also expect to see “Four titles from third-party /indie developers”.

We can also see some releases from EA where they have worked with DICE and Bioware.

GAMEPLAY - EA want to aim for 'authentic' over 'realism'
Currently, we have seen an Oculus Rift trailer so we are
certain it will release on PC. We have no news on whether the game will release
on consoles this year.
Other Consoles
EA has shown some interest in the Nintendo Switch.
THE ULTIMATE EXPERIENCE - Is the Switch the greatest console... ever?
CFO Blake Jorgensen said EA is interested in the console due to its fast growth in popularity.
However, they have also said:
“the top-selling titles by a long shot are all Nintendo software.”
This means EA is not interested in creating their own software to allow their games to run on the Switch.
