Though EA has been criticized at times for churning out too many sequels gamers will be interested to know that the company is already working on over half a dozen new IPs.
EA Games chief Patrick Soderlund told MCV:
We are working on a new Mirror’s Edge game, and although that’s not a new IP, it is a revival done in a new way. We are developing Star Wars Battlefront, which to us is a new IP, even though it isn’t technically. We have six to eight completely new IPs in the works. The day we stop making new IP is when we go onto life support. We need to incubate new ideas and push creative boundaries.
We know of Titanfall, but the other titles have not yet been announced. Do you have ideas of what they might be? Dead Space developer Visceral is working on a next-gen game that isn’t another Dead Space, it’s likely that is one of these new IPs. Though it appears reboots such as Mirror’s Edge “2” and DICE’s upcoming Star Wars: Battlefront may count as part of this 6-8 number.
