Electronic Arts' COO Peter Moore has confirmed that the company hasn't yet decided how they're going to approach DRM, following announcements from Sony and Microsoft in recent days detailing their respective plans for the next-generation of consoles.
"We have not internally even begun to sit down and answer those questions," Moore told Polygon during a recent interview.
"Sony have announced what they are going to do which is, y'know, business as usual, and then Microsoft are looking at allowing a publisher to opt-in, should they choose to do so. But if we opt in, do [Microsoft] charge a fee, and if so, how much?"
He went further and denied that EA had ever asked platform holders to introduce restrictions:
"EA did not aggressively lobby for the platform holders to put some gating function in there to allow or disallow used games. I am on record as being a proponent of used games. I like the ecosystem. I like the fact that it's kept pricing at a good level for eight years. I like the fact that someone can buy a physical game and see some equity in that game. That keeps GameStop vibrant and they are a great launch and marketing partner for us.
EA has never had a conversation, and I have been present at all of them, with all of the manufacturers, saying you must put a system in place that allows us to take a piece of the action or even stop it."
