Electronic Arts at a Glance

Electronic Arts has been an active force in the gaming industry since 1983, releasing titles through 2026. As one of the largest publishers by volume, they have 802 games listed as their primary work out of 818 total entries on PlayPile. Their catalog spans nearly five decades, with output peaking in the 2000s when they released 269 titles. The 1990s saw significant activity with 192 releases, while the 1980s had 66 games. Recent years show a slowdown in total count, with only 63 games logged for the 2020s so far. The company covers a wide range of genres, though they lean heavily toward simulation, shooter, and sports titles. Simulator games make up their largest category with 205 entries, followed by shooters at 178 and sports games at 171. They also maintain a strong presence in adventure, strategy, and role-playing game markets. Platform support is extensive, with PC (Microsoft Windows) being the dominant platform for 386 titles. Their reach extends back to DOS with 114 games, and they have substantial libraries for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and newer consoles like Xbox One and PlayStation 4. Quality varies across their massive library. The average IGDB rating sits at 71.5 out of 100 based on 476 rated titles. This score reflects a mix of high praise and mediocrity. They have produced 106 games rated as great, but they also have 303 titles that fall into the good range. A smaller portion of their work is considered mixed or poor, with 62 entries scoring between 40 and 59, and just five titles rated below 40. Some of their most acclaimed works include Dragon Age: Origins Collector's Edition from 2009, which holds a perfect 98 score. Titanfall: Deluxe Edition (2014) and Mass Effect 2 (2010) also achieved scores above 93. Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri (1999) remains a high-scoring entry from the turn of the century. More recent releases show fluctuating reception. Battlefield 6 and its Phantom Edition released in October 2025 both received 80/100 scores. Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted debuted at 80.1/100, while Battlefield REDSEC scored slightly lower at 70.1/100. Looking further ahead, Star Wars Zero Company is scheduled for release in December 2026.
