ANYONE FOR TENNIS? EA ANNOUNCES TENNIS FRANCHISE IN DEVELOPMENT
All-New EA SPORTS Franchise Is the Place to Play the Slams
Sydney, Australia  August 21, 2008  Electronic Arts Inc. (Nasdaq: ERTS) announced today that an all-new tennis videogame is in development at EA Canada in Vancouver under the EASPORTS brand.
The EA SPORTS tennis franchise will be available first for the Wii in 2009, followed by other platforms, and it will be the first EA SPORTS game that uses NintendoÂs upcoming Wii MotionPlus accessory for the Wii Remote that will give players a new level of accuracy and responsiveness.
ÂAs we look to expand the EA SPORTS brand and captivate sports fans from around the world with rich new interactive experiences, it was obvious that the renaissance weÂre seeing in the sport of tennis provides us with a big opportunity, said Peter Moore, President, EA SPORTS.
ÂOur new tennis franchise, coming first to the Wii, will put fans right into the action and provide the excitement, tension and drama that true champions feel in legendary matches  like the classic from Wimbledon just last month."
EA SPORTS will bring tennis to life and allow players to experience the pressure and excitement of competing in the greatest theaters in the game, and it will be the only videogame to feature the All England Lawn Tennis Club  home of The Championships, Wimbledon.
The all-new EA SPORTS tennis franchise will offer innovative ways to play, both as or against the greatest players from the past or present, letting you control the ball and work the court like you never have before in a tennis videogame.
For more information, please visit www.easports.com/tennis. The game has not yet been rated by the ESRB or PEGI.
