Electronic Arts has decided to shut down its mobile and free-to-play North Carolina studio, according to an anonymous source speaking with The Escapist. The studio's page on EA's website has been taken down.
The good news according to the source is that most of the team has been offered the chance to relocate to other EA studios. The relocation will take by October 5. This also suggests that there won't be many employees laid off.
EA North Carolina worked under the 'EA All Play' label. The studio developed free-to-play games for smartphones and tablets. The last game they released was Monopoly Hotels for the iOS.
