The coronavirus pandemic has sent shockwaves through the video game industry. It's caused the cancellation of the Game Developers Conference, E3 and a raft of publisher events that were due to take place over the next few months. EA, which has thousands of staff globally across a number of offices and studios, said it is "strongly recommending" all its employees in North America, Europe and Australia work from home until 1st April "to help limit potential exposure to coronavirus and minimise the social spread of the illness".
