EA already had their press conference, here's The Verge's 8 min recap of it.

A buncha Star Wars and sports games, but also, amazingly, a couple new IP's!

One of the new EA IP's is Anthem, sci-fi game by Mass Effect devs, with a teaser trailer that didn't say much about anything.
The other one is a split-screen prison escape game called A Way Out.

From the makers of "Brothers: A Tale Of Two Sons" it says, but apparently that doesn't mean it's by Starbreeze. It is written by Swedish writer-director Josef Fares, but I dunno if anyone else from the Brothers team is involved.

A Way Out looks interesting but also maybe terrible? The part in the presentation where the left-hand player was in a cutscene while the right-hand player was playing normally just made me go "wait, what? That's an awful idea!"

That's a poor idea but the overall thing looks really, really interesting coop. Reminds me a little of Splinter Cell coop, but arguably with more depth.

Hurray, more Ori! Given that Ori and the Blind Forest was one of the most gorgeous platformers ever made, the fact that they're making a follow-up to it is tremendous news. The difficulty curve in Ori was never the smoothest, given that from time to time it loved to drop you into buttfuck valley when you least needed to be, but it remains a touching and beautiful piece of platforming. A sequel? That just warms the cockles of my heart.
