Webinar

Three top investment pros open up about what it takes to get your video game funded.

It Takes Two

Josef Fares is making another cooperative, story-focused game. It Takes Two is about a child who deals with their parents’ divorce by creating two dolls … which both come to life.

Lost in Random

Wow, this looks cool. First off, it has a magical six-sided die that talks. It also has a bit of a Tim Burton vibe that I’m digging. Lost in Random really does look original, so it’s a great fit for the EA Originals brand.

Rocket Arena

This 3-vs.-3 arena game has shifted publishers from Nexon to EA. Think Overwatch but with more rockets.

Star Wars: Squadrons

We got our first look at gameplay for EA’s next Star Wars game, which is coming out on October 6. It includes both a solo campaign and multiplayer. Man, those cockpits are gorgeous.

EA Sports

EA showed a montage of projects that are further off. This includes a racing game from Criterion, a fantasy game from BioWare that’s probably Dragon Age 4, Dice’s next Battlefield, and an original game from Motive that includes a sort of gravity gun mechanic.

Skate 4

Skate 4 is real! We didn’t get to see the game, but at least we know it’s real! What a comeback for skating games we’re seeing.
