EA speaks quietly about Battlefield 2042's numbers, "A disappointment"

It has probably not gone by anyone that almost no one is happy with Battlefield 2042 at present day, and yesterday it was clear that Dice is postponing season one to focus on patching. Whether the efforts are enough remains to be seen.

In a new financial report, Blake Jorgensen, CFO at EA, expresses the company's disappointment.

"We sold less units than we thought we would."

They do not want to go into concrete figures, but Andrew Wilson, CEO, adds that he believes in the game in the long run. He, EA and Dice thought the game was ready for release. They were wrong. But despite the misjudgment, EA and Dice are determined to make the game reach its full potential.
