It feels like a long time since EA has known what it is for
Briefly

The cancellation of the Black Panther game by Electronic Arts, along with the closure of Cliffhanger Games, illustrates the company's struggle with its identity in an evolving gaming market. EA's CEO Andrew Wilson signaled this shift by announcing a move away from licensed IPs, favoring established franchises and live service models. This reflects a broader trend within the industry, where the success of major titles has made publishers hesitant to invest in new concepts, mirroring the ongoing challenges faced by the gaming giant amid changing consumer preferences.
EA's decision to cancel the Black Panther game highlights its struggle with identity in a changing market, prioritizing live service and sports over creative risks.
The cancellation of the Black Panther game isn't just about that title; it's emblematic of EA's ongoing identity crisis and aversion to risky ventures.
