The fall-out from the resignation of EA CEO John Riccitiello continues to radiate through the company with several sources claiming that the EA Partners Label is to be closed.
Riccitiello resigned in March following poor performances and a few experiments that didn't pay off. EA Partners has been in play since its formation in 1997 and was aimed at providing publishing and other weight to third-party products such as Rock Band from Harmonix and Valve's Orange Box.
According to GameInformer, "The two biggest titles anticipated under the label are Respawn's first game and Insomniac's Fuse. According to sources, neither will be affected by this. EA's earnings call for fiscal year 2013 is scheduled for May 7, at which point we expect more information on the publisher's strategy."
