Report: EA shut down BioWare in favor of Star Wars: Battlefront sequel after previously decrying licensed games
Brief
Bloomberg reported that EA chose an unannounced Star Wars Battlefront multiplayer shooter over Mass Effect: Universe, cancelling the latter and shutting down BioWare. The report cites $18 billion in debt from EA's leveraged buyout and executive reshuffling that sidelined longtime BioWare backer Laura Miele. BioWare co-founder Greg Zeschuk criticized the closure, saying companies like EA do not understand game development.
