At Electronic Arts' E3 2008 press conference this afternoon, John Carmack (co-creator of Doom and co-founder of Id Software) announced that id Software would join the publishing giant through its EA Partners program. EA's rapidly growing program is also home to mega-developers like Valve and Crytek. Carmack also announced that id's newest release, Rage, will be published by Electronic Arts under the new agreement.
Stay tuned for further details as they emerge.
