The footage shown within EA Sports’ Xbox One trailer was “all pre-rendered”, the publisher has confirmed.

EA Sports boss Andrew Wilson confirmed the news to Polygon, but claims that the montage (which you can see for yourself below) contains “real game assets straight out of our game teams” and that, in some cases, the games look even better than what was shown yesterday.

“It was all pre-rendered,” Wilson told the site. “Listen, we’re not hiding behind that fact. This was an event that we’ve been planning for a number of months on a new platform. And what we wanted to do was use real game assets, so they’re all real game assets, straight out of our game teams, but we had to get it into a format that would be usable in this style of event.

“What I’m really happy to say, though, is that our games right now are delivering on that, and in some cases more, and we’re going to show a lot more of that at E3 in a couple of weeks. And then by the time we get to launch, the sky’s the limit of where we get to.”

EA Sports announced its Xbox One line-up last night, including FIFA 14, NBA Live 14, Madden NFL 25 and EA Sports UFC, and revealed its next-generation engine Ignite.

All four titles are due to release within the next 12 months.
