QuoteThe new 2K, NFL games are described as "non-simulation football game experiences" and specifics on developers, exact titles and release dates are yet to be revealed. However, current projects are already in early development and are slated to launch sometime in 2021.

Quote“EA SPORTS is the exclusive publisher of NFL simulation games, and our partnership with the NFL and NFLPA remains unchanged. Our agreements have always allowed for non-exclusive development of non-simulation games on various platforms. Our commitment to NFL fans, which spans almost 30 years, has never been stronger, and we’re having our biggest year yet. Madden NFL 20 is the most successful game ever in the franchise, and new modes like Superstar KO and our Madden NFL esports broadcasts are growing the fan base. We’ll be building on that momentum with more new and different experiences, on more platforms and with new ways to play, in the years to come.”

NFL Playgrounds and will be a DLC filled monstrosity is my guess. Could not see the NFL allowing a Blitz type game ever again.  Baby steps.  Real simulation you got there with that Superstar KO mode. How about updating that franchise mode with some of that MUT money.

Maybe we are looking at a sequel to easily the best football game released on the Nintendo Wii.

Yep...NFL Playgrounds with tons of DLC sounds about right. Hard pass for me.
