EA's DICE LA is Changing Its Name to Ripple Effect Studios And Developing An Unannounced Game

EA announced that DICE LA is changing its name to Ripple Effect Studios as it embarks on an "aggressive path" to grow and develop its own unannounced game once it finishes its work on Battlefield 2042.

Haven’t they changed their name like, twice before?

CaptainHenry9161780d ago

Yup and it's not going to make a difference if they keep changing their name LMAO

Inverno1779d ago

I believe they were Danger Close and they haven't exactly made anything really worth playing since their Medal of Honour games a decade ago.

swifty11778d ago

I don’t know why but I REALLY enjoyed those games. I remember playing the beta (I think) for Warfighter. In this war torn middle eastern city style map with two levels and TONS of ways to move around the map, so many paths! I was blown away by it…at the time. Still one of my favourite games ever, sorry I’ll get down booted but that’s ok. I even loved the campaign. I think you played as a dude with a giant beard,.. ah good times

They were EA Los Angeles, then Danger Close, then DICE LA, and now Ripple Effect. It's like they change their name every time they work on a new project.

I was the odd one who legitimately enjoyed Warfighter.
I thought the way they handled teams, and the way it actually benefited you by sticking together, was pretty neat.

I know it's a hated title, but I really enjoyed it.

The game was just forced to release in an unfinished state. Typical EA. Danger Close had talent. Same goes for all the studios EA acquired and looted.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing24d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit24d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing24d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9224d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
