EA’s next game in its racing franchise is “already looking spectacular” according to company CEO Andrew Wilson

Many companies have had their earnings call recently for the quarter gone by but EA’s CEO Andrew Wilson had something interesting worth mentioning about its “Need for Speed” franchise. During 2014, EA confirmed they would be skipping a year for the franchise and that it’s next entry would debut in 2015 in order to allow a “extended development window” which was probably due to feedback based on how poor the series is being received by fans with recent games.

Wilson stated during the EA earnings call that ‘Need for Speed” will launch this calendar year and teased fans that the game is “already looking spectacular”. I’ve a feeling Wilson stated this in order to show investors that their committed to the series, as investors probably aren’t happy with recent entries due to the revenue the game once generated for the company.

Ghost Games are the studio behind the next game that launches this year and already mentioned that their listening to fans, give the game the fans want but it does take time. Their also saying it’s highly innovative and that fans should be excited.
