Feeding off the excitement of the new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, EA has revealed three brand new titles that will bring "next generation gaming to the palm of your hand."
Announced but not fully detailed, the three games are FIFA 15 Ultimate Team, Peggle Blast, and SimCity BuildIt. All three are being built specifically for mobile devices, and EA claims "with the capabilities of the iPhone 6 and iOS 8" will be "bigger and better" when they release.
"Here’s what was obvious: the combination of the beautiful screen, stronger processing power, better battery life and increased storage capacity tells us that we’re getting to next generation console-level capabilities with the new devices. Right in the palm of your hand," said EA Mobile executive vice president Frank Gibeau.
"As developers, we love the Retina display – more fidelity on the screen, along with more real estate to play on, means better game experiences. Metal is a real game changer for us as well – it unlocks tons of opportunities, including new shaders and texture memory to create richer environments, advanced AI, frame rate stability and an overall level of immersion that’s really impressive. And let’s be honest: give a game maker more storage size, and we’re going to take it and run with it to bring higher quality experiences to our players."
Details are a bit scarce at this point, but EA is calling SimCity BuildIt "the most advanced mobile building simulation game" with "countless buildings and vivid, 3D-quality graphics." Peggle Blast, meanwhile, offers "easy-to-use controls, awesome challenges, and exciting and unpredictable gameplay."
FIFA 15 Ultimate Team will be available later this month, while Peggle Blast and SimCity BuildIt will launch in the fall.
