Bad Company and Merc 2 to ship in "fiscal 2009"
In EA's third quarter financial statement, just released, the company said it expected Battlefield: Bad Company and Mercenaries 2: World in Flames to ship in fiscal 2009. EA's financial year ends on March 31, meaning the games could hit anywhere between now at the end of March 2009.
The statement was the only forward-looking, specifically game-related point in the report aside from CEO John Riccitiello saying he was "looking forward" to the release of Army of Two and FIFA Street 3. No specific release dates were given.
No mention was made of Will Wright's Spore, which has now almost certainly slipped into the back half of the year.
