EA’s future is looking digital…100% digital according to the EA Labels president, Frank Gibeau.

Gibeau recently revealed to GamesIndustry International:

It’s in the near future. It’s coming. We have a clear line of sight on it and we’re excited about it. Retail is a great channel for us. We have great relationships with our partners there. At the same time, the ultimate relationship is the connection that we have with the gamer. If the gamer wants to get the game through a digital download and that’s the best way for them to get it, that’s what we’re going to do. It has a lot of enhancements for our business. It allows us to keep more that we make. It allows us to do some really interesting things from a service level standpoint; we can be a lot more personalized with what we’re doing.

According to Gibeau, EAs future will include not only platform games, but also Facebook, mobile and game streaming as well.
