EA Play 2020 - Skate 4 Announced and Many Others!

EA Play is an annual event held by the controversially acclaimed videogame publishers of EA - I say 'controversial' as many of their decisions in the past have been downright unacceptable. Anyways, this year's iteration has revealed all of EA's plans for the current and next generation of consoles. Read on for a concise list of all the announcement. 

  • The Sims 4 - following its 2014 launch on console, the simulator has just made the switch onto Steam and is available right now. 
  • It Takes Two - from the passionate creators of 'A Way Out', another co-op action-adventure is back in the works - coming 2021.
  • Lost in Random - another original title, the diversity here is quite difficult to nail down with the preview given - coming 2021.
  • Rocket Arena - an arena shooter with a strong focus on rockets, condensed in 3v3 actions with multiple characters to choose from with their own abilities - releasing July 14th. 
  • Star Wars: Squadrons - probably what most people are looking forward too, the next Star Wars game in the series which is coming out October 6th with a story mode too!
  • EA Sports - combination of next-gen Madden and FIFA titles 
  • Skate 4 - with no details whatsoever, all we have is a promise, and a very exciting one too. 

Personally, these all look to be great fun: I'm highly enthusiastic for 'It Takes Two' as hardly any games nowadays cater to local couch multiplayer while 'Lost in Random' and 'Rocket Arena' look like new, experimental, leaps forward for EA as a studio. 

Meanwhile, the Star Wars and Sports series need to have an impact on next-gen, and hopefully they'll make use of the new graphical ceiling too. 

Included in the showcase was also a small montage previewing other potential games, which the community has interpreted as Battlefield gameplay, a hint of Dragon Age 4 and other unannounced titles. Who knows: perhaps EA can compensate for their history of unethical conduct and offer up some awesome games in the future?

Let us know which of the following titles you're looking forward to in the comments section below!
