EA chose Star Wars Battlefront 3 over Mass Effect, report says — and BioWare paid the price

رپورٹ: ای اے نے میس ایفیکٹ پر اسٹار وارز بیٹل فرنٹ 3 کو چنا، بائیو ویئر کو قیمت چکانی پڑی

रिपोर्ट: ईए ने मास इफेक्ट पर स्टार वॉर्स बैटलफ्रंट 3 को चुना, बायोवेयर को कीमत चुकानी पड़ी

EA chose Star Wars Battlefront 3 over Mass Effect, report says — and BioWare paid the price

Key points

اہم نکات

मुख्य बातें

  • EA reportedly chose a new Star Wars Battlefront game over the next Mass Effect, a decision Bloomberg identifies as the main factor in BioWare's closure.
  • Both sci-fi projects would have cost hundreds of millions of dollars; executives saw Battlefront, not yet in development at DICE and Respawn, as the safer, more predictable bet, while Mass Effect was still in early development with about 50 staff.
  • The choice came as EA, taken private in a $55 billion leveraged buyout, carried heavy debt.
  • رپورٹ کے مطابق ای اے نے اگلے میس ایفیکٹ پر ایک نئے اسٹار وارز بیٹل فرنٹ کھیل کو ترجیح دی، اور بلومبرگ اس فیصلے کو بائیو ویئر کی بندش کی بنیادی وجہ قرار دیتا ہے۔ دونوں سائنس فکشن منصوبوں پر کروڑوں ڈالر لاگت آتی؛ انتظامیہ نے ڈائس اور ریسپان میں ابھی شروع نہ ہونے والے بیٹل فرنٹ کو محفوظ اور زیادہ قابل پیش گوئی سرمایہ کاری سمجھا، جبکہ میس ایفیکٹ ابھی ابتدائی مرحلے میں تھا اور اس پر تقریباً 50 افراد کام کر رہے تھے۔ یہ فیصلہ اس وقت ہوا جب 55 ارب ڈالر کے لیوریجڈ بائی آؤٹ کے بعد ای اے پر بھاری قرض تھا۔ بیٹل فرنٹ 3 کا باضابطہ اعلان ابھی نہیں ہوا۔
  • रिपोर्ट के अनुसार ईए ने अगले मास इफेक्ट पर एक नए स्टार वॉर्स बैटलफ्रंट खेल को तरजीह दी, और ब्लूमबर्ग इस फैसले को बायोवेयर के बंद होने का मुख्य कारण बताता है। दोनों विज्ञान-कथा परियोजनाओं पर करोड़ों डॉलर लागत आती; प्रबंधन ने डाइस और रेस्पॉन में अभी शुरू न हुए बैटलफ्रंट को सुरक्षित और अधिक अनुमानित निवेश समझा, जबकि मास इफेक्ट अभी शुरुआती चरण में था और उस पर लगभग 50 लोग काम कर रहे थे। यह फैसला उस समय हुआ जब 55 अरब डॉलर के लीवरेज्ड बायआउट के बाद ईए पर भारी कर्ज़ था। बैटलफ्रंट 3 की औपचारिक घोषणा अभी नहीं हुई है।
