Said a spokeswoman,

In December, EA announced a cost reduction initiative that will impact facilities and headcount. We do not expect to make any more public announcements until our earnings call in early February. Outside of our scheduled earnings call, we aren’t providing any new information on the status of individual facilities.

Something’s brewing, and it ain’t pretty.
