REDWOOD CITY, Calif., April 18, 2005 – Electronic Arts (NASDAQ: ERTS) will premier the world’s first look at the next generation of videogames on Saturday April 23, 2005.

EA is deep in development on what will be the strongest next generation console line up in the videogame industry, highlighted by other hit franchise titles to be announced at a later date.
