In 2010, it was revealed that EA Los Angeles would be re-branded as Danger Close Games.<ref name="JoystiqDangerClose">{{cite web|url=http://www.joystiq.com/2010/07/23/danger-close-the-story-behind-ea-las-new-name/|title=Danger Close: The story behind EA LA's new name|last=Gilbert|first=Ben|publisher=]|date=2010-07-23|accessdate=2013-02-02}}</ref> The studio's direction was to focus exclusively on developing upcoming ''Medal of Honor'' games, which for the first time were to abandon their traditional ] setting.
