Star Wars: Battlefront II, BioWare's new IP, Need for Speed: Payback, and more made an appearance.
E3 is officially underway, as Electronic Arts today hosted its EA Play press conference. Much of the news concerned previously announced games, such as Star Wars: Battlefront II, Need for Speed: Payback, and FIFA 18. It also had some surprises in store--even if they were leaked shortly beforehand--like BioWare's new IP, which is called Anthem, and an exciting-looking co-op action game named A Way Out.
There was a lot to take in, so we've rounded up all of the announcements from the briefing. Below, you'll find all of our coverage of the EA event, and you can also check out our EA press conference liveblog if you want to re-experience it, or see all the EA trailers here.
