EA Says More Games Coming To Nintendo Switch, But Is Thin On Details

4 years ago

Electronic Arts is still on track to increase its Nintendo Switch support, according to the publisher. EA said on its Q4 2020 earnings call that it's set to release "multiple" new games on the Switch, but it hasn't gone into many more details than that--and that's about all the company said in January, the last time it had an earnings call.

Right now, there are only five EA games on the Switch, with Burnout Paradise Remastered set to hit Nintendo's system in June. EA mentioned a few other games it's set to release through the year, including Madden NFL 21, FIFA 21, and NHL 21, but it's unclear which, if any, of those games will also be on Switch. So far, the only EA Sports titles on the system are FIFA 18, FIFA 19, and FIFA 20; the other two games are Fe and Unravel Two.

We do know that EA has a lot of games planned for the rest of the year that it hasn't announced yet. On the earnings call, the company reiterated that it has 14 titles planned for release between now and May 2021, but it only called out the five mentioned above by name. On the footnotes of its earnings call presentation, EA said it expects to announce more releases "over the coming months, including an unannounced EA Sports title, an additional EA HD title, four EA Partners titles, and two mobile soft-launches." EA is also going to expand the platforms of current EA titles, according to the presentation, although it didn't get more specific than that.
