NFL2K is Back !

Post by Rodster »

Finally some much needed competition. It all starts in 2021 and Madden will probably see a sales boost as well.

Not exactly back:

"Football is coming back to 2K but it won’t be a return of that NFL 2K franchise. Instead they will be “non-simulation games” across multiple platforms with the first title releasing sometime in 2021. EA Sports continues to retain exclusive rights to produce simulation NFL games with Madden."

But better than nothing.

I made the same mistake when I read the click bait headlines.

What I want to know is what is the definition of "simulation football" in the EA contract. Is it no franchise mode and GM type stuff or is it 11 v 11 football. Makes a big difference.

What this is all really about is leverage, EA contract up in 2021 so NFL is making them think they could switch partners and get more $$ on the next one.

I'll still buy it whatever it is. I'm just as bored with Madden as I am with MLB The Show. I haven't bought Madden in 2 yrs so i'm willing to try something different. Too bad they don't bring back Blitz The League. Those games were fun with Frank Caliendo doing his John Madden impersonation.
