During the latest investors call after this quarter’s earnings report, EA CEO Andrew Wilson spoke (transcript via Seeking Alpha) about the company’s plans to investigate cross-platform play for key franchises in the near future, after Fortnite’s success paved the way for it.
In terms of cross-platform play, again we are seeing the same thing. And remember, we have a vision on a 3- to 5-year time horizon where a great portion of game experience will exist in the cloud and be pushed to every device you own. And the game experience you have won’t be measured by local CPU or GPU but will be measured by screen size and session time you have, and will drive tremendous liquidity in the market – in a player base. And I think we are to deliver very different types of experiences as a result of a cloud gaming offering.
