There was a Tweet posted showing the order of events.

1) Nexon make a bid for Respawn
2) As per their publishing agreement, EA gets first refusal
3) EA shuts down Visceral
4) EA buys Respawn

3 might be unrelated, but Nexons bid was well above market value knowing Respawns deal with EA and hoping EA wouldn't match it. Shutting down Visceral seems to fit in with the cost saving needed to bring Respawn in.
