EA: Transformation and Layoffs at EA Vancouver

EA: Transformation and Layoffs at EA Vancouver	Sonntag, 05.02.2012
EA Vancouver, the home to the EA Canada and EA Black Box studios is currently undergoing a "transformation" and as a result a certain, unspecified number of employees are unfortunately being laid off. EA mentioned to IndustryGamer that the layoffs affect a "small number" of staff. “EA in Vancouver is transforming its studio to align with EA’s transformation to high-growth digital formats, including online, social gaming and free-to-play. Employees in our BC studio are learning new skills and working on digital games and services, and there are many examples. Developed at the EA SPORTS studio in Burnaby, the FIFA Soccer franchise represents the cutting edge of AAA gaming integrated with multiplatform extensions and online features. The Need for Speed World team in Burnaby is leading the digital transformation with 11 million registered players. As the BC studio makes this transformation, a small number of employees are being impacted while most others are being retrained, redeployed and rolling-on to new projects.” Just recently EA announced a solid quarter with a loss of 205 Mio. USD, but rising sales and reaching an important $1 billion digital revenues milestone. IndustryGamers

No need for speed games for Black box

Does this mean EA BLACK BOX will never create any NFS Titles in the Future.
