At its press conference today, EA announced some new additions to its social media presence.
First up was the announcement of SimCity Social from EA Maxis. A collaboration between Maxis and Playfish is bringing the SimCity experience to Facebook, promising a "truly social" version of the game. A colorful reveal trailer shows off impressive graphics on the social media platform. According to EA Maxis' Lucy Bradshaw, the game will be released in "just a few weeks."
EA also promoted its social media tie-ins with two of its biggest sports franchises. Madden 13 Social was promoted as a cross-platform social media game you can "begin on Facebook and finish on your phone," and a new rewards program was introduced into FIFA 13 for members of the EA SPORTS Football Club. A new app for iPhone and iPod touch was also announced, connecting members of the Football Club with their friends.
