EA Originals Reveals Three New Games During EA Play Live

Today, during EA Play Live, Electronic Arts revealed three new EA Originals games, and confirmed a new partnership with Final Strike Games. Hazelight Studios’ It Takes Two, Zoink’s Lost in Random and Final Strike Games’ Rocket Arena will be published under the EA Originals Label. EA also revealed that an upcoming team-based action game from NY based Velan Studios will be built using the developer’s new game engine under the EA Originals banner.

Rocket Arena
Developed by Seattle based Final Strike Games, Rocket Arena is a cross-play hero arena shooter where players and teams master the art of the rocket through a roster of heroes, customizable play styles and competitive action. Set in the World of Crater, Rocket Arena introduces new blast and recovery mechanics, rocket launchers that can be used in combat or to propel heroes around the map and signature character abilities to create a completely new shooter experience. The game will also feature regular seasonal events packed with free content, including new heroes, maps and in-game events. The first season kicks off July 28th, just two weeks after launch. Players can experience Rocket Arena on July 14th when the game launches with cross-play on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Origin and Steam.

It Takes Two
It Takes Two is the next IP from the Stockholm based studio behind A Way Out, which was also published under the EA Originals label. Under the leadership of game director Josef Fares, Hazelight Studios is setting out to deliver a game that reinvents the genre, taking players on an adventure together. Launching in 2021, Josef Fares outlines his vision for the title as a uniquely varied co-op game that takes audiences through an emotional journey in a fantastical world.

Lost in Random
Gothenburg based studio Zoink’s Lost in Random is a gothic fairytale action-adventure, with a very modern message. As another new IP set in a twisted dystopia where uncertainty and chaos are feared, the game follows Even, a courageous young girl, and her living dice companion, Dicey. Together, the two embark on a journey where they must learn to embrace the unknown and play the hand they’ve been dealt, in a bid to break the curse of Random. Players can play Lost in Random in 2021 when the game releases on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC via Origin and Steam.
