EA SPORTS is also preparing two new projects. The first is Project Gridiron, described as a brand-new, social-first open-world experience from the company’s American football team. The second is a new Fight Night project, which has entered pre-production and will leverage capabilities from EA’s simulation fighting team.

For its lifestyle portfolio, EA is prioritising the long-term potential of The Sims and skate. The company will give its team more time to develop Project Evergreen, allowing it to pursue the project’s full vision, while development on Project Lotus will be paused.

Meanwhile, EA is restructuring the skate. development team to create a smaller, more focused studio. The goal is to deliver a clearer roadmap for the community and establish a healthier, more sustainable business around the game.
