EA has announced that alongside EA Play Live, the publisher’s annual games showcase, will have a few other separate shows in the form of EA Play Live Spotlight.
These standalone broadcasts, four in total, are essentially panels for select games and game genres. These are not essential viewing, but if you are intrigued by developer interviews for the selection of games, you might want to check in on them. Though the final EA Sports panel may offer a surprise.

- “Will highlight an extremely cool new addition to an extremely popular and long-running EA Sports franchise”
EA Play Live, the main show, will be broadcasted on July 22, 10AM PT (July 23, 1 AM Malaysia Time). There will be “gameplay reveals, a few giveaways and other surprises.”
Rumour has it that one of the new games to be revealed is something Dead Space related, as several websites have reported, but we shall soon find out. Nothing Dragon Age or Mass Effect will appear, however, which Bioware has now confirmed.
EA only revealed the new Battlefield 2042 during this summer period of almost-infinite game reveals, but since they purposely have not much to show at E3, EA Play Live is something you might want to keep your eyes peeled for new games from EA.
