EA reports record $8.026 billion annual sales

Electronic Arts has achieved a new sales record of $8.026 billion for its fiscal year 2026, largely driven by the success of Battlefield 6. The milestone comes just two months after the company laid off an unspecified number of developers working on the game.

Electronic Arts closed its final year as a publicly traded company with the record annual sales figure. Battlefield 6, named the best-selling game of 2025, played a central role in the results despite a year-over-year dip in live-service revenue. Investors are set to receive a dividend ahead of the company's planned private equity buyout this summer.
