Today Electronic Arts released its financial results for the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2017 (related to the period between July 1st and September 30th), as you can see in the table below.

CEO Andrew Wilson accompanied the press release with a statement, defining the quarter "excellent" and boasting Battlefield 1 and Titanfall 2 as two of the highest rated games of this console generation.

“Q2 was an excellent quarter for Electronic Arts, led by breakthrough new EA SPORTS titles engaging players across console and mobile. We are in an outstanding position for the quarter ahead, with two of the highest-rated games of this console generation in Battlefield 1 and Titanfall 2, global competitive gaming tournaments underway, and our first virtual reality experiences coming soon. Across all platforms, this holiday season will be a fantastic time to play."

A second comment was also provided by CFO Blake Jorgensen, who talked about FIFA 17's strong performance and strong growth on the mobile market:

"Net sales in the quarter were better than expected driven by outperformance in FIFA, and supported by strong year-on-year growth in mobile. We are raising our annual guidance today based on the strength of our holiday slate and FIFA 17’s strong performance to date."
