The Medal of Honor series is apparently being put on hold. Although the 2010 reboot of EA's FPS series was successful for the company, its follow-up was not. 2012's Warfighter met lackluster reviews, and equally dismal sales. According to EA, the title performed "well below our expectations."
EA COO Peter Moore said that "the game was solid but the focus on combat authenticity did not resonate with consumers. Critics were polarized and gave the game scores which were, frankly, lower than it deserved."
"This one is behind us now. We are taking Medal of Honor out of the rotation, and have a plan to bring year-over-year continuity to our shooter offerings," he said. With Danger Close's FPS tabled, it appears EA is placing even more weight behind the Battlefield franchise.

Couldn't compete with stupid fucking Call of Duty rehashes every six fucking months.
I played the hell out of Allied Assault on PC. Expansion packs too. That game is easily one of my favorite WWII shooters.

Meh. I heard the last one sucked anyway. Plus they don't need to put one out yearly like CoD. Let them take their time and release it when it's ready.

I really liked the last Medal of Honor, but I agree... there's isn't a need to pump it out yearly..

Re: Medal of Honor franchise no longer part of EA's 'rotatio
I thought the last one was good, but it could've been better. Either way, the last one was a hell of a lot better than any CoD released since the first Modern Warfare. The Reboot of MoH was amazing IMO. I was curious as to where the series was going to be going next.
At least we will be having Battlefield 4 to look forward to.
