EA cancels Black Panther game and closes studio developing it
EA has reportedly cancelled its Black Panther game and is shutting down the studio that was working on it. At least one other Marvel project at the publisher remains unaffected.
EA is reportedly telling staff that the layoffs are a way to "sharpen our focus and put our creative energy behind the most significant growth opportunities."
