EA execs choosing Star Wars Battlefront 3 over Mass Effect 5 was the main factor in BioWare's demise, according to report Corporate chair shuffling and the Mass Effect studio's recent struggles may also have played roles The postmortem on BioWare, following their shuttering by EA this month, points to the publisher's preference to back Star Wars Battlefront 3 over Mass Effect 5 as the main factor in the demise of the beloved RPG developer. That's according to Bloomberg, who also report that a couple of other factors likely also had some influence. The Bloomberg report paints EA's position as being one of a company caught between spending a bunch of money on a Star Wars shooter-shaped rock and a hard place with a sign that read Mass Effect 5.

That's because developer Sports Interactive have released a Launch Preview version of the game that lets you take it for a kickabout before it comes out in earnest. As the devs explain in a Steam blog post, "running for the next five days, the FM27 Launch Preview will be freely playable," across all of its release platforms. This is your chance to get hands-on with the complete FM27 experience across all game modes, including Shuffle Draft, the fast-paced new multiplayer addition." One caveat worth noting is that there may be some bugs or glitches in the game that the devs "will work to address in future updates." This, understandably, may be a touchy subject for some.

Our Verdict Modern Warfare 4 is the bar that this series should regularly aspire to, and a reminder that Call of Duty benefits when it actually tries to change. PC Gamer's got your back There is a new game titled "Call of Duty" every year, but it's not every year that Call of Duty is really back. What is it The next Call of Duty from the original creators of Call of Duty Release date October 23, 2026 Expect to pay $70/£60 Publisher Activision Blizzard Developer Infinity Ward Reviewed on RTX 5090, Ryzen 7 9800X3D 4.7 GHz, 64GB RAM Multiplayer Up to 60 players Steam Deck Unsupported Link Official site The tireless schedule of Activision's load-bearing FPS has resulted in more bad games than good as of late—Modern Warfare 3 was an expansion-sized sequel rushed out the door, Black Ops 6 was a step back for multiplayer, and its immediate followup Black Ops 7 was clocked as superfluous and uninteresting even by rain-or-shine fans. These back-to-back games, shouldered by Treyarch, Sledgehammer, and Raven, had cracks and compromises that suggested the Call of Duty machine just can't keep up with both "good" and "fast" anymore.

Electronic Arts is developing an American football experience unlike anything it's made before, the company said in a memo shared publicly after closing BioWare and laying off 400 people across the company . In trying to spin the news positively and toward the future, the memo's attributed writers, chief studios officer Cam Weber and chief operating officer David Tinson, spoke about several of the publishing giant's upcoming games, including something EA is calling Project Gridiron. The memo's exact phrasing calls it a "social-first open-world experience for our American Football team."

The company that gave us viral bad news like " Project $10 ," day-one DLC , and paid crafting materials in Dead Space 3 simply hasn't earned a tempered response from players, and so there won't be one.
