Electronic Arts CEO Andrew Wilson has said that the ongoing confusion over the future of Call of Duty, and specifically whether it will be an Xbox-only franchise, could help EA’s Battlefield series soar higher.
During a recent Goldman Sachs event, Wilson said that if Call of Duty becomes an Xbox-only franchise on console, Battlefield as a multiplatform game for Xbox, PlayStation and PC could help differentiate it. Even if that doesn’t happen, the general uncertainty surrounding it is another benefit for Battlefield, Wilson said.
