EA Restructures Battlefield 6 Dev Teams as Launch Profits Hit High Note

EA reportedly laid off developers across Criterion, Dice, Motive, and Ripple Effect who worked on Battlefield 6, despite the game’s strong launch sales and ongoing profitability. EA framed the moves as a realignment to focus on community-driven priorities and the Battlefield franchise overall, with comments that they will continue investing in the series. The layoffs follow other cuts and a broader cost-reduction push tied to investor ownership changes.
