Electronic Arts has released Q2 FY21 financials, reporting strong financial results, with The Sims 4 expected to have another strong year. Check out details and info below!
Around the world, our multi-platform Sims community continues to grow, and our Sims 4 player base on PC and console is now the largest in franchise history.
The Sims 4 and Apex Legends show how we build great live services into strong ongoing businesses. This quarter we’ll launch our 10th expansion pack for The Sims 4, along with some important game updates that add even more cultural customization options for players.
In addition, Apex Mobile development will be complete in the new year and ready for launch in FY22. We also expect another very strong year for The Sims 4, a testament to the strength of that community as it enters the seventh year of live service.
We started the year expecting $300 million to $400 million in net bookings; it is now on track to deliver more than $500 million. That is, Apex will have gone from zero to about a billion dollars in lifetime net bookings in just two years. With this velocity, and the addition of mobile, we believe Apex has the potential to grow to a billion dollars in net bookings every year. This is what we do. We’ve done it with FIFA, we’ve done it with Madden, we’ve done it with The Sims, we’re doing it with Apex, and we’ll do it again.
