Despite the beating it took for Star Wars: Battlefront 2, EA will be doubling down on microtransactions for future titles. CEO Andrew Wilson believes that they, when “done right,” can “provide a very important element of choice that can extend and enhance the experience.”
Just how big are microtransactions in terms of revenue for EA? For the latest quarter, EA's digital net bookings for "live services," which includes optional add-on content, came to $787 million. Wilson went on to say he's happy that the Battlefront II community is so outspoken, acknowledging that EA did not get it right with how the game used microtransactions.
