BioWare's new studio title isn't going to come out until at least 2018, according to EA CEO Andrew Wilson. It's now set to arrive during the 2019 fiscal year, which runs from April 2018 to March 2019. Only a few months ago Wilson said the game was on track for a release by March 2018.
Since the new release period encompasses an entire year, we don't know when to expect the game. It could arrive in the spring or summer of 2018, but that hasn't been confirmed.
The new game is an "action-adventure, not RPG."
We're very pleased with the progress of our new action IP from BioWare. The design is stunning. Gameplay mechanics are excellent, and the action will be exhilarating. The game is built around a live service, and through our creative process, we decided to add more to the disruptive new social design for our players. To accommodate that, we are moving the launch date for this project into fiscal year '19.- Wilson
Part of the delay appears to be connected to the game's online component, which needed more work.
