Same could be said for Sony. Lately it seems Activision (financially at least), SquEnix and Capcom are closer to Sony. This said I doubt EA would alienate the 5 million guaranteed sales of FIFA in Europe over cross platform play. Might as well just not bother, save money in development not adding it in and still sell crap loads of games.
Again, this to me screams of a PR move to help smaller games or MMOs to gain userbase, it's not for CoD or FIFA. I mean there was nothing stopping EA or Activision doing cross platform between PC/PS4/Xbone right now on those games but they still don't. But for games like Rocket League and Elite Dangerous, it suits it perfectly already. This move would just allow those games to have an extra set of users instead of limiting it to 2 userbases.
Hmm, pie.
