During a Media & Telecom Conference, EA\u2019s Chief Financial Officer, Blake Jorgensen, confirmed the release window for a number of their biggest hitters:<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve got our Battlefield<\/em> first-person shooter game coming in the third quarter, and our third-party title that Respawn, our partner, built. It\u2019s called Titanfall<\/em>, it\u2019s the second title that they brought into that brand. Both of those are first-person shooters and will be targeted around the fast, action-driven shooter market, as well as the strategy-driven market in that quarter,\u201d said Jorgensen \u2013 thanks WCCF Tech<\/a>.<\/p>\n EA\u2019s third quarter takes place between October 1st<\/sup> and December 31st<\/sup>, putting both Battlefield 5 <\/em>and Titanfall 2\u2019s <\/em>release firmly within 2016.<\/p>\n On the other hand, Mass Effect Andromeda<\/em> has been pushed into 2017, releasing during EA\u2019s fourth quarter. \u201cAnd then we have Mass Effect<\/em>, which is a sci-fi action game, in our fourth quarter,\u201d continued Jorgensen.<\/p>\n That\u2019s a lot to be excited about during this and early next year.<\/p>\n Now, of course, there\u2019s a rumour going around that Battlefield 5<\/em>\u2014also nicknamed Battlefield 2016<\/em>, until DICE confirms otherwise\u2014is going to be based in World War 1. We doubt it.<\/p>\n World War 1 is not a good fit for the Battlefield <\/em>formula \u2013 that is, armoured vehicles, aircraft, tactical squad play and coordination between each.<\/p>\n War World 1 was a lot of standing around in trenches, artillery batteries, the odd cavalry charge and unwieldy machine gun nests \u2013 a lot of which will alienate current fans of the series.<\/p>\n As for Titanfall 2<\/em> and Mass Effect Andromeda<\/em>, well we don\u2019t know much about either. Employees within EA, DICE and Respawn have said great things about each title, but we can\u2019t recall any developer trashing their game before a reveal.<\/p>\n Mobile games that offer a console experience<\/a><\/p>\n Games we can\u2019t wait to play this month<\/a><\/p>\n
