EA Says Madden and FC Might Find ‘Real Energy’ on Nintendo Switch 2

EA is reportedly planning to bring many of its popular titles to the Nintendo Switch 2. This was confirmed by CEO Andrew Wilson during a recent financial call. He specifically highlighted the potential success of EA's sports franchises, Madden and EA SPORTS FC, along with The Sims, on the new console. Wilson emphasized the opportunity to reach new players with these established franchises on a new platform.

While the specifics remain unannounced, the expectation is that titles like EA SPORTS FC and Madden will perform well on the Switch 2, potentially offering a more enhanced experience compared to previous iterations on Nintendo consoles. The success of The Sims and My Sims on the original Switch, which attracted a significant number of new players to EA, further supports this optimism.

The announcement of the Switch 2 has generated significant excitement about its potential game library. Rumors suggest a range of third-party titles are in development, including Civilization VII, games from Nacon (publisher of Greedfall 2, Test Drive Unlimited, and RoboCop: Rogue City), and the highly anticipated Hollow Knight: Silksong. Nintendo itself has confirmed work on a new Mario Kart title, with further details expected at a Nintendo Direct in April.
