EA says it will leave Codemasters to its own devices, like it has with Respawn

Electronic Arts CEO, Andrew Wilson, has told UK video game magazine MCV about the company’s plans for the recently acquired UK racing game studio, Codemasters. He told the publication that the company’s approach is similar to how they handled Respawn Entertainment and that’s to leave the studio to its own devices. He says that it’s basically like giving them a set of keys to the cupboard and then they can take whatever they want from that cupboard. Here’s Mr. Wilson’s comments:

“Similar to Respawn, our orientation isn’t to come in and take over Codemasters; our orientation isn’t to come in and turn Codemasters into another Electronic Arts studio; our orientation is around the provision of opportunity.”

“And so the way we’re thinking about this, and it’s how we worked with Respawn, it’s more about handing Codemasters a set of keys to the cupboard, and they can come and take what they need from that cupboard, but they get to continue to be who they are, because that’s what made them special in the first place.”
