EA Sports, a privately owned company headquartered in Canada, was founded in 1992 and employs approximately 310 individuals. The company specializes in computer games, functioning as a division of Electronic Arts that develops and distributes video games.
On May 1, Electronic Arts (EA) reduced the price of one of its games to $0.99, ahead of its planned delisting later in the month, continuing a concentrated effort over the past two years to remove older titles and shut down their online services. Also on May 1, the company drew attention for its microtransaction strategy, introducing pre-orders for battle passes in Battlefield 6, a practice that builds on its reputation for monetization tactics, including lootboxes in FIFA Ultimate Team. Previously, on April 30, Dungeon Keeper 2, a 1999 strategy game released by Bullfrog and EA, dropped below $1 on Steam for the first time since its 2024 availability on the platform. Separately, Sony announced on April 30 that EA Sports FC 26 would be made available free to all PS Plus members at the start of May, alongside Wuchang: Fallen Feathers and Nine Sols.
