According to Grubb, the title is early in development and is a single-player affair. A new Seattle studio founded by former Monolith Productions VP and studio head Kevin Stephens is likely working on the project.

Sounds good. Once EA officially reveals the game, I can add it to my list. 😂

I don’t care about this one bit. But I have to ask…

When was the last time EA actually made an
Open world game?

I have no faith in this.

Well...I'd focus on the team as asking when a publisher did something is kind of odd. As you wouldn't ask Take Two this, you'd ask Rockstar so to speak.

The team behind it seems to be lead by the Shadow Of Mordor lead




So...I'm not questioning EA regarding this, I'm questioning the team itself and it seems its in great hands. We'll have to see how any of that move translates to this Black Panther title. EA has wanted to get in that open world space for some time now as they made comments of wanting some GTA type game too, but likely never pulled the trigger based on not having the right team or quality or something. Till this day people complain about that Star Wars open world game that was canned, but if EA of all publishers is canning it based on some issues, clearly an issue might really be going on as we've seen EA launch some broken games lol

Maybe they want to release some mega AAA title thats open world that they feel can make a massive impact to be trusted in that genre. I think maybe that makes more sense then spamming open world games regardless of quality as by the time they do have a winner on their hands, who would trust it? So maybe it was best they waited until they got the right team, the right IP etc.

So it’s a rookie team from the worst third party publisher there is.

Please be excited

EA had the overall game of the year for 2021 (It Takes Two) and are far from being the worst third party publisher. I would put Konami, Square Enix, Take Two Interactive and Activision Blizzard as all being worse than EA. At least for me anyway.

That's good news in my books, if they can get it right that is, but I don't have much trust in EA these days! I'm sure it'll look good at least and I hope that they'll make a good game, the IP certainly deserves it.

Nice to see EA investing on single player, but I'm not interested on Black Panther at all.

BP is more like a poor man's wolverine. I'd much rather play Wolverine tbh.
100% agree, I'm very interested on Wolverine and X-Men, not in Black Panther. And I trust Sony and Insomniac, not EA.
