EA Cuts Hundreds of Jobs, Cancels Titanfall Game

Electronic Arts (EA) is laying off 300 to 400 employees, including about 100 at its Respawn Entertainment subsidiary, and canceling a new Titanfall game codenamed R7. The cuts are part of a strategic realignment to improve resource allocation and drive future growth. R7, an extraction shooter set in the Titanfall universe, was in early development. This follows EA's earlier reduction of its fiscal year bookings estimate after the underperformance of EA Sports FC 25 and layoffs at BioWare after the disappointing sales of Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
