"The launch of EA Sports Freestyle is an exciting milestone in the evolution of the EA Sports brand," said Peter Moore, president, EA Sports.

"EA Sports Freestyle will be a perfect complement to our core portfolio and will provide compelling opportunities for new audiences looking for a lighter gaming experience and an easier entry point into EA Sports."
