Summary
Alexander Dao, EA’s advertising chief, said developers should build in-game ads into new and existing titles, especially free-to-play console releases such as Skate.
EA argues early integration makes ads feel more native and gives brands more flexibility, as studios hunt for steadier revenue amid layoffs, AI-driven change and the decline of physical media.
Frostbite now underpins EA’s ad system, starting with sports games and allowing marketers to place ads in multiple in-game locations.
