      The “strike” series? Oh wait that was already dead.

      Command and conq— no no no already dormant.

      Oh! How about Road Rash—

      Yeah nothing of value is going to be lost

      mass effect? honestly that’s all I can think of off the top of my head. They’ll start pumping out more Battlefields, more sports, more money into UFC games and I would bet good money they’ll try to buy the license for WWE games from 2k. Saudi’s love their WWE.

      It would make sense to sell every IP they can piecemeal to get some return on this investment.

      If I had to guess then Saudi (or MBS) wanted EA FC which can now return to being EA FIFA now with extra Ronaldo. Saudi have enough influence over FIFA via PIF to make this happen.

      Need For Speed for being anti authority? Honestly, I have been missing a new NFS game. The last one came out in 2022, and the longest wait between them since 1994 was 3 years… Definitely didn’t play them all, but the last two, Heat and Unbound, were surprisingly good.
