After the unprecedented hostility from fans and critics to the loot box fiasco, EA wisely decided to suspend all microtransactions. Today they revealed their new plan...

In a twitter exchange with a journalist from The Wall Street Journal, EA CFO Blake Jorgensen revealed that microtransactions will be returning to. This decision was made because the game shipped a lot less units than the developer had anticipated. In the Holiday Quarter, 9 million units of the game were sold. This came as a disappointment to EA as they had anticipated a figure in the 10 million range.Mr. Jorgensen pointed out that loot boxes will be back in a few months and will only be cosmetic in nature.Check out the tweet below for more details:
