Not the case for their last 3 new games, Mass Effect Andromeda, Anthem, and Dragon Age Veilguard were each said to have sold under expectations in their investor earnings calls. Veilguard barely sold more than half of what EA was expecting to sell in the launch quarter, while exact amounts below expectations weren't given for Anthem and Andromeda. |
I think the bigger problem was that all three of them were in development for so long and their budgets grow so far out of control that none of them had any prayer of turning a profit. EA clearly had cause to suspect that whatever new Mass Effect project was in development was heading the same way.
