FIFA 18 is coming, of course – and of course EA showed more of it at its EA Play.

Need for Speed is back this year with Payback, which is looking to take the series slightly backa little to its roots.

EA has put Mass Effect on ice following Andromeda's release, as its development studio is transformed into a support house for other developers.

BioWare's new IP is no longer on the table for the next year, with EA pushing back the Destiny-like title by at most another year.

This year will see Need For Speed return. While it’ll most likely arrive with a squad of police cats in hawt persooot, it’ll be ditching some dead weight along the way: A always-online connection requirement. “When release day rolls around for the next Need for Speed, you will be able to play through a single player experience completely offline,” developer Ghost Games said in a statement.

Star Wars Battlefront II is introducing changes to classes, weapons and DLC. But it's still not adding all of the features some older fans might want.

Living up to its title, Battlefront II is throwing in a single-player story this year with a campaign set from the viewpoint of an Imperial officer. A choice that was blatantly obvious for the development team for Battlefront II. “That's where we started with the soldier, and then we looked at the storytelling that was happening in other mediums,” game director Mark Thompson said to Glixel.

Respawn isn’t done with their franchise just yet. There’s still plenty of DLC to burn through between now and June, DLC that drops in a new titan, maps and levels. Here’s the bullet-point rundown of what upcoming patches will add to Titanfall 2 in the months to come.
