EA will have “a couple” of games ready for Wii U launch
EA Games chief Patrick Soderlund has said that the company will have “a couple of titles” prepared for the Wii U’s launch. Mass Effect 3 has already been confirmed for the console, so we’re looking at a sports game as the other unknown release.
Soderlund also discussed future support for the Wii U, noting that EA “will appear on that platform will all the games that we deem need to be on that platform” if the system is successful.
According to Soderlund:
“We’re backing the Wii U with a couple of titles for launch. Obviously, what was announced at E3 was the (EA Sports) lineup. If you look at our Games label, we will assess the Wii U as we do with any platform. If it’s successful, we’ll be on it, and we absolutely hope it will be, and think it will be. If it is, we will appear on that platform will all the games that we deem need to be on that platform.”
EA hasn’t officially announced any sports titles for Wii U, but it’s clear that Madden and FIFA are in the works. Details on EA Sports’ lineup are expected next month.
