Electronic Arts Inc. today announced
its initial plans for the PlayStation Home Beta for the PLAYSTATION 3, the 3D

gaming experiences online. EA’s support of the PlayStation Home Beta will begin

launch this Spring.

“We’re proud to support the
PlayStation Home Beta with a very robust offering from EA SPORTS,” said Peter
Moore, president of EA SPORTS. “As part of our continued commitment to the
connected experience and the digitization of our business, the EA SPORTS Complex
is a rich new online environment that presents a compelling and immersive social
gaming experience for the global sports audience.”

PlayStation Home would be a compelling experience for all EA SPORTS fans, with a
space designed for both casual and hardcore gamers. Gamers will be able to play
exclusive new EA SPORTS multiplayer games, meet and interact with EA SPORTS
fans, view daily, weekly and annual leaderboards to see how they compare against
the rest of EA SPORTS Nation, as well as watch trailers and other content from
some of their favorite EA SPORTS games.

EA is currently working with Sony
Computer Entertainment on further label support of PlayStation Home Beta, and
will announce plans in the near future.

sports software brand in the world, with top-selling titles and franchises
