Electronic Arts, also known as EA, is a Publicly Owned company headquartered in the United States. Founded in 1982 by former Apple employee Trip Hawkins, the company employs approximately 30,130 individuals and reported $7.5B in revenue as of 2026. As a tier 1 media tech buyer, the company specializes in niche sports as its main product, functioning as an American video game company.
Reports on September 11, 2026, indicated that Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF) is considering merging Electronic Arts with its Savvy Games Group, aiming for "better coordination between its assets." This follows a consortium led by PIF acquiring EA in a $55 billion leveraged buyout earlier in the year. Previously, on September 10, Electronic Arts admitted to using "AI voice technology" in the upcoming NHL 27, citing its ability to "bring more variety to the game" and enable quicker responses to feedback. This admission followed attention drawn on September 8 after NHL 27 play-by-play voice John Buccigross confirmed that EA utilized artificial intelligence to generate additional commentary in his voice without recording every line, which raised questions regarding the marketing of his involvement.
