EA, the famous Italian company, has recently confirmed that it will not place advertising in its video games, officially denying these rumors. This information originally appeared online, claiming that the company had even signed a contract.

Electronic Arts, which is currently busy with the preparations of the EA Play, contacted the newspaper PC Gamer, declaring that the much talked about agreement does not exist. This denial, however, does not completely remove the shadows on playerWON, as only EA has confirmed that they are not in negotiations.
