It’s official: EA is going private.
The leveraged buyout will be financed by a staggering $20 billion of debt, which likely means some *aggressive* cost cutting is ahead for EA in the coming months and years.

In a deal involving a company owned by Jared Kushner, a company that is basically just the Saudis, and $20B of debt.
Don’t forget how many years it went live and the absurd number of expansion packs.
… And?
A shit ton of those couldve been free updates lol
Well, their artists did make additional assets though, even if they may be recoloured versions.
And…? Cyberpunk, monster hunter, witcher, … All got visual updates in their lifetimes :p
