EA is Bringing More Games to New Platforms including Steam and Nintendo Switch, and Delivering More Games with Cross-play Support

At EA Play Live 2020, Electronic Arts Inc (NASDAQ: EA) celebrated its players with all-new game announcements, gameplay debuts, the arrival of its games on more platforms than ever before, and a first-ever look at what the company’s best-in-class studios are preparing for the next generation of video game consoles. Apex Legends™, which has been a runaway hit since its surprise launch last year will welcome even more players when it launches on Steam and Nintendo Switch™ with cross-play support this fall. EA Play Live also saw the worldwide gameplay debut of Star Wars™: Squadrons, the brand-new starfighter experience from Motive Studios and Lucasfilm, complete with a single player story and 5v5 multiplayer space battles.

The full list of announcements including links to trailers and assets can be found below:

Apex Legends 

Apex Legends Lost Treasures Collection Event Trailer

Apex Legends’ Season 5 has the highest level of per-play engagement seen to date, the highest daily retention of any season and the largest number of new players since Season 1. When Apex Legends launches on Steam and Switch with cross-play support this fall, the game will welcome even more new players to the battle.

During EA Play Live, the team at Respawn also unveiled that the Lost Treasures Collection Event will start June 23. The event features a new mode, limited time exclusives and a new Town Takeover — Crypto’s Map Room. Players can see the return of the game’s sniper and shotgun only mode – Armed and Dangerous – with a few twists such as Evo Armor and an all-new piece of loot, Mobile Respawn Beacons.

The Sims™ 4

The Sims, created by Maxis, has always empowered players to express themselves through the Sims they create, the stories they tell, and the worlds they design. The Sims 4 plus all its post-launch packs are now available to even more players via Steam. The life simulation game has seen more than 2.5 million new players join the community in the past two months and has also seen a peak high of nearly 10 million playing the game monthly in the past quarter. The team has been humbled that the game has served as a source of great fun and joy for so many players, who are celebrating life’s biggest moments with their loved ones virtually, recreating their friends and family, and special events like birthdays, graduations and even weddings.

It Takes Two, due out in 2021, is a co-op action adventure platformer from Hazelight, developer of the critically acclaimed and award-winning A Way Out. Zoink’s Lost in Random, a gothic fairytale action-adventure with a very modern message, is set in a twisted dystopia where uncertainty and chaos are feared. Lost in Random releases in 2021 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC via Origin and Steam.

The game will feature thrilling 5v5 multiplayer dogfights, monumental fleet battles, and an original story set during the final days of the Galactic Empire and the rise of the New Republic after the events of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi™. Star Wars: Squadrons will launch October 2, 2020 on the PlayStation® 4, Xbox One, PC via Origin™, Steam and the Epic Games Store, and will be playable via Virtual Reality (VR) on PlayStation 4 and PC with cross-play support.
