Electronic Arts has told employees it is closing BioWare's Edmonton studio after 31 years, ending early development on the next Mass Effect game. BioWare, acquired by EA in 2008, created Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Knights of the Old Republic, Neverwinter Nights and Baldur's Gate. EA says it is redirecting resources toward Battlefield, Apex Legends, Marvel's Iron Man, a new Star Wars Jedi title, an EA Sports football project, and a Fight Night revival.

Microsoft's KB5124010 update, pushed to Windows 11's stable channel this week after appearing in the Release Preview channel, is causing crashes in games protected by the Javelin anti-cheat system, including Battlefield 6 and Wardogs. Players report the games crash within seconds of launch with little or no error information, though Wardogs users see a WD-L020 error code.
