Electronic Arts today unveiled the games it will feature at the
Electronic
Entertainment Expo (E3) in 2008. The games - scheduled to
ship on multiple
platforms in 2008 and early 2009 - include riveting
graphics, deep stories and online, socially connected experiences. EA’s portfolio covers many genres and platforms for core gamers and
new players alike. Veteran players will love the feature innovations
in our core titles; new players – women, young people and adults –
will have a wide selection of highly accessible games like MySims
Kingdom, LITTLEST PET SHOP and FaceBreaker a new
Arcade-style Boxing game from the new EA SPORTS Freestyle brand.
“EA’s 2008 line-up is our best ever,” said EA CEO John Riccitiello.
“This is the year that our core franchises leap forward with
stunning innovation and we introduce more brand new games than any
other year in our history. Sports lovers will compete in an all new
Holographic Mode in Madden NFL 09 and experience the online
evolution of their players in NBA LIVE 09. Action fans will
be able to destroy everything in sight in Mercenaries 2 and
be scared witless in our new Sci-Fi Horror title Dead Space.
We’ve got casual family titles like LITTLEST PET SHOP and
genre-defying experiences like Mirror’s Edge and Spore.
EA has never offered consumers a stronger, more innovative and
diverse line up of new games.”
“EA’s 2008 line-up includes titles that are going to change how
people purchase, play and socialize in games,” said EA COO John
Pleasants. “Spore – scheduled for release in September – can
be experienced as a Single-Player or in an online social network
that will form its own galaxy. Battlefield Heroes brings
comic-styled warfare together with multi-player fun in the first
free-to-play First-Person Shooter. MySims PC brings
Multi-Player interaction to the universe of MySims.
Warhammer Online promises realm-versus-realm gameplay, unique in
the scale and consequence thousands of players can experience
together in a game. These games are great examples of the many
titles that will allow consumers to interact with their friends and
with EA’s content in new ways that bridge the gap between games and
social networks.”
EA will kick off its E3 presence with a press conference hosted by
CEO John Riccitiello, and spotlighting many of the creative leaders
as well as featuring new titles from EA.
