Electronic Arts CEO feels ‘very good’ about the next Battlefield’s launch now that Grand Theft Auto 6 is out of the way

“Living next to you is in some ways like sleeping with an elephant,” former Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau said in 1969, describing the relationship between the US and Canada. “No matter how friendly and even-tempered is the beast, if I can call it that, one is affected by every twitch and grunt.” This is also true of some videogames, which are so massive that their impact has ripples across the entire industry—Cyberpunk 2077, for instance, muscled more than a couple games out of its way ahead of its splashdown in 2020.

Grand Theft Auto 6 is poised to be an even bigger deal, and game industry executives not employed by Take-Two Interactive have been sweating: As one anonymous executive put it earlier this year, “We don’t want to be anywhere near that.” The recently announced GTA 6 delay is thus very good news indeed for anyone looking to release a game prior to May 2026—people like, for instance, Electronic Arts CEO Andrew Wilson.
