Field 6 is one of the most important new release in the EA lineup for the next financial year, but Andrew Wilson has no worries about competing with GTA 6, the CEO revealed in the latest EA’s latest revenue call-and the latest delay of the latter game is to do with it in May 2026.
The EA announced during its presentation that the next battlefield would begin within 2026, which means it should be here before March 2026. In question and answer after the EE briefing, Wilson was asked about his thoughts about the change in the release window for the “Big Major Expected Release”, which clearly cited GTA 6, which was recently delayed in May 2026.
“Generally, today, sports construction and development takes many years,” Wilson said, saying that it is not easy to move the release dates based on events such as delay in GTA 6. “It is unlikely that if you were not already ready to launch in this window, it may be difficult to get ready and take advantage of that otherwise there may be less competitive window that we can expect first.”
“Regardless of the battlefield, what we have said is that we are building towards a window that we thought is the most meaningful for the battlefield-but we will not start in the window we have thought that we have made it small that we have felt in the franchise. Wilson continued. “I think now, without too far, we believe that the window is clear than before, and we feel great in starting the battlefield in the financial year 2026.”
The battlefield is a large new release from the EA, along with a direct service -based skate reboot for the next financial year. In addition to these two new releases, EA is relying on its EA sports portfolio and Sims franchise to make its business healthy for the New Year. The EA revealed that direct services have made 73 % of its business in FY 25-and it is planning to tilt directly in direct services in the coming years.
The EACFO Stuart Canneffield revealed that the company plans to choose a more concentrated and blockbuster story investment in a more concentrated slate around the large -scale online communities, which means that we will usually see less new games than the EA, and more of them.
The income call did not pay the meaning of the current wave of the EA. The EA highlighted the recent performance of Apex Legends, the company expected that the hero shooter would be able to see a 40 % reduction over the next year. While talking about the future of the game, the EA straightforward said, “We continue to focus on the supply of our basic players and in the long -term evolution of the franchise.”
Although the CEO or CFO did not mention the recent holiday. Wilson said, “We see AI as a powerful Excel of creativity, innovation and players’ contact.” “In our teams, we are investing in new workflows and abilities to connect AI how we are of the formation, scale and personal nature of the experiences-from these worlds to the game, from these worlds, to an incredible scale like authentic athlete and team.”
