Star Wars Battlefront II Builds High Hopes 2vy22

Star Wars: Battlefront

There is no shortage of competition in the AAA titles coming out, Electronic Arts remains confident that it can deliver on high hopes with Star Wars Battlefront II. 141w9

Last month, EA estimations of its sales is a little peculiar.

Perhaps EA is trying to be circumspect. Its CFO, Blake Jorgensen, added that it’s too soon to start make excessive Call of Duty: WWII, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds on Xbox One, and Assassin’s Creed Origins. Does that make Jorgensen worry? To the contrary, Jorgensen thinks the competition drives console sales, which benefits publishers like EA.

Is this hope misplaced? It’s hard to say right now, so we will have to wait and see. EA may be “very, very happy” with Battlefront II’s progress, but the people with the real say will be the consumers.
