EA additionally determined to not host any sort of showcase this 12 months, regardless of having had an annual present, EA Play Reside for a number of years working.
That’s not everybody out nevertheless, as we all know Sony will likely be internet hosting a State Of Play tomorrow, and Microsoft has a showcase set for June 12, 2022.
Although it might be stunning to see EA and Ubisoft each skip what’s often a pivotal month within the 12 months, it’s an even bigger reflection of the truth that publishers have discovered they’ll announce what they need, at any time when they like.
