@Psubond Investors initially punished Activision stock AH by 1.5%, but it instantly recovered when they released information that COD was still going to add new content in 2023, just not a new game version.
Investors and gamers both win, even when a product is delayed as long as their is some new content to fill in the time gap and the final product quality is great.
EA currently has a P/E ratio of 57.19, ATVI has a P/E ratio of only 23.57. EA can't afford to mess up in the near future as investors won't be so forgiving if they mess up Apex, which is a much larger percentage revenue stream than BF 2042.
The irony is if Apex was not such a huge hit, EA probably would not have taken so much risk on BF 2042 BR/Class system...
