EA won't raise prices of its games, we won't pay $80 for Battlefield 6

In the past few months, a lot of people have been upset about the rising prices of games. Many players expected that Battlefield 6 would be the next example of this, but fortunately, we already know that this won't be the case.

1. This information comes directly from the CEO of Electronic Arts, Andrew Wilson. During a chat with investors about the new financial results, he was asked about the reports claiming that Battlefield 6 will cost 80 bucks. He denied this information and confirmed that we will pay 70 dollars for the standard edition of BF6. There are currently no plans to increase the prices of other titles of the publisher.
2. Of course, a more expensive special edition of BF6 will also be available. According to rumors, it will be named Phantom Edition and will cost 100 dollars.
3. Andrew Wilson also added that he is confident in the success of BF6. He said that the game meets the expectations of the series' fans and the test feedback is really positive, so he expects the game to be a hit.

Electronic Arts has high hopes for Battlefield 6, and the title must repair the franchise's reputation after the cool reception of BF2042. Not raising the price to $80 is the right decision because EA doesn't want to discourage a lot of potential buyers from playing the game right from the start.

Players have a strong negative reaction to increasing game prices. Nintendo managed to push this through thanks to the excitement surrounding the release of Switch 2, and as a result, for the biggest productions, such as Mario Kart World, we have to pay $79.99. The same "trick" didn't work for Microsoft, which recently had to back down from the price increase of The Outer Worlds 2.
