I'm curious to see this since the implication is we haven't yet.

EA said:
I also want to call out a big accomplishment by the teams that built the development engines for our next generation of games -- Frostbite3 engineered at DICE, and a brand new engine from EA SPORTS. These world class tech stacks are powering all of our development on the new systems. They provide an enduring common technology that saves cost, fosters efficiency, and provides spectacular physics and graphics for our games.

This isnt a vision these engines are fully functional right now and powering the games youll see at E3 in June. Youll hear more about Frostbite3 and our new sports engine at our E3 Investor Breakfast in June.

One more positive milestone is the recent licensing agreements weve reached with partners in our sports business, including FIFA, the PGA TOUR, the NHL and NHL Players Association. Together with our long-term agreements with the NFL, NFLPA, NBA, CLC and the UFC, this bodes well for fans who will continue to get games with all the teams and players they love.

So this is why FIFA 14 Wii U was not announced. Running on a new engine...

prwxv3 · May 7, 2013

WiiU......

thekonamicode · May 7, 2013

Will the next-gen launch Madden games coming out this fall be stripped of features just like Madden 06?

Meelow · May 7, 2013

Hate to say it, but yeah Nintendo is going to have to give in on all of EA wants for Wii U, even if it has something to do with Origin.

R3TRODYCE · May 7, 2013

Oh man Madden on a next gen engine HNNNNG! Also maybe NBA Live will have some sort of relevancy now.

EA will still be releasing sports titles for the current gen consoles (360/PS3) for several years.

I loved Live so much. I hope there is a day that it returns to its former glory.

Camp Lo · May 7, 2013

Waiting for that madden "next gen" jpg from years ago that looked nothing like current gen

Needless to say fight night is what is worth waiting on

2K has a mighty grip on the basketball sim market (especially after EA gave up). Live will have took really look amazing to get people to jump over, a new engine is a good start.

I hope not but it really doesnt matter if they have a new engine gameplay comes first

They can just re-release this vid:

Takuya · May 7, 2013

I really hope Ea Sports actually releases proper sequels this gen, instead of NHL07,NHL07.1,NHL07.2,NHL10,NHL10.1,NHL10.2,NHL10.3...etc..

Yeah maybe we will finally get something close to that.

Cant wait for next gen madden, current gen looks like ass

Why wait when you can have the game for a dollar?

USC-fan · May 7, 2013

Thought it would be at the xbox 720 announcement.

TheKayle · May 7, 2013

drooling already for fight night

I highly doubt yearly sports games updates will change that much. Setting yourself up for disappointment.

Totobeni · May 7, 2013

and a brand new engine from EA SPORTS

Cool,it's time for them to move to new engine.

your move now Konami,time to show PES with Fox engine before it's too late.

I think they prefer making more money.

Never.

Super Mario All Stars Gridiron 2K14 playable at E3.

Metalmurphy · May 7, 2013

Gotta say I'm surprised. I was totally expecting FIFA 14 to be pretty much a high res version of 360/720, and only FIFA 15/16 would see a proper engine swap.

And this engine is for next-gen, I'm assuming Wii U is next gen enough to run it.

Reiko · May 7, 2013

Nirolak... Something other than Frostbite?

Haunted · May 7, 2013

Excited to see FIFA14's leap over its predecessor.

jaypah · May 7, 2013

I need that new Fight Night. I'm super curious about Madden and Live, just to see what the graphics look like. But Fight Night is the game that I'll actually buy.

I think new engine will be for FIFA 15.

I wish I understood soccer rules because I bet this game is a blast

Get ready to see what all their sports titles will look like for the entire generation!

Ehh, I haven't bought the last two NHLs. I got 12 given to me by an EA friend though.

I think it's just a case of EA moving on from building new engines for previous generation quality systems. I don't know if there is a way for Nintendo to get support from EA other than handing them a substantial offer that includes cash, marketing, and development support.

EA probably isn't coming back and it's only going to get worse for the WiiU. Third party sports titles appear to be pretty big system sellers. It's a business decision. The WiiU isn't profitable enough system to develop for to be a part of EA's long-term strategy.

:boo

Announcement in the OP makes it sound like we'll see the new engine at E3, which would obviously be FIFA 14 not 15.

Chamber · May 7, 2013

Interested in seeing the UFC game. Hopefully it's as impressive as Fight Night was in 2006.

Mihael Mello Keehl · May 7, 2013

Totobeni said:

Why is that? This is next gen engine they are talking about. Fifa 14 for next gen may have it.

QuikZilver · May 7, 2013

Isn't this a road to world cup year? I hope we don't get a stripped version again. I want a complete Fifa game.
