During a conference call regarding the company’s 2nd quarter financial results, EA’s John Schappert revealed that more than a dozen unannounced EA titles had been cut from production as part of its cost reduction plan.
Schappert called the move a “targeted cost reduction which will allow a greater investment in our hit titles and digital businesses.” The reduction in titles, which Schappert later revealed to number more than a dozen, goes hand in hand with the closing of facilities and layoffs as part of the company’s restructuring plan.

“In a way, if you could array our title slate up…we’ve cut the bottom third of it.”
