I think they're either already operating at a loss, or are about to be. This is such a clearly money driven move that they've eviscerated their market.

They made most of their money off of merchandising and movies, which were popular off the back of the huge hit that the original game was.

The free to play follow ups were never nearly as popular so the merch and movie empire has pretty much collapsed and now they’re just doubling down on the free to play stuff because it’s all they have left.
