On the fiscal conference call, EA Chief Executive John Riccitiello notes that the company will be releasing BioWare's Mass Effect 2 as a multiplatform title.

 

 

BioWare's Mass Effect was a blockbuster RPG, selling over one million copies worldwide during the 2007 holiday season. When Electronic Arts purchased BioWare, however, many wondered if the sequel to Mass Effect would remain exclusive to Xbox 360. 

 

Although specific platforms were not mentioned, EA CEO John Riccitiello did mention on the quarterly earnings conference call today that Mass Effect 2 is being planned for release on "multiple platforms" during the fourth quarter of the upcoming fiscal year.

 

It's certainly possible that multiple platforms simply means Xbox 360 and PC, but Electronic Arts doesn't typically limit its multiplatform releases like that. We now believe that it's highly likely that Mass Effect 2 will launch on the PS3 in addition to the Xbox 360 when it finally hits the market in early 2010.
