The guy in charge of EA Sports is now in charge of EA everything
With EA's acquisition by Saudi Arabia now complete, there have been a couple changes at the top.
Electronic Arts, now owned by Saudi Arabia, has seen CEO Andrew Wilson restructure the company, appointing Cam Weber as president and chief studios officer and David Tinson as president and chief operating officer. Wilson's announcement, intended to reassure employees, largely comes across as empty words after highlighting EA's long history and exciting future.
Despite Wilson's poetic words about innovation, the new leadership seems to focus EA's efforts on its flagship franchises like EA Sports FC and Battlefield, potentially sidelining smaller projects. With a significant amount of debt accumulated to fund the deal, Wilson expects heavy investment in AI for game development and player experience, along with potential layoffs.
