EA Lowers Financial Forecast For Current Fiscal Year, Blaming EA Sports FC 25 and Dragon Age: The Veilguard ‘Underperformance’
EA has attributed a lower-than-anticipated financial projection for this fiscal year to the underperformance of EA Sports FC 25 and Dragon Age: The Veilguard, which together make up most of the company’s revenue shortage.
Based on a revised forecast for Electronic Arts (EA) ending March 2025, the game “Dragon Age: The Veilguard” saw only half of the anticipated player engagement. Specifically, there were around 1.5 million players during the quarter, which is significantly less than the 3 million EA had hoped for, representing a decrease of nearly 50%.
BioWare’s RPG isn’t the only game falling short of expectations; even EA Sports FC 25 didn’t meet the company’s standards, as stated by EA CEO Andrew Wilson in his recent financial report. The report indicates that they are still producing quality games and experiences across their entire portfolio during Q3.
Nevertheless, the sales of “Dragon Age” and “EA Sports FC 25” didn’t meet our projected earnings, but we are optimistic about our long-term plan. We anticipate a resurgence in growth during the fiscal year 2026 as we carry out our project pipeline.
The prediction indicates a modest decrease in live service subscriptions, attributed mainly to EA Sports FC 25. According to Electronic Arts, the game experienced a drop in popularity following its release in late September.
The game EA Sports FC 25 has undergone a significant overhaul in its gameplay, incorporating over 50 modifications, yet it’s uncertain if this update will convince hesitant gamers to try it out if they haven’t done so already.
