EA Sports officially released its trailer for Madden 26 with the video game set to be released on the 14th of August. The graphics are the best they have ever been.

It is now to the point that your grandparents will not be able to tell the difference between a live game on Sundays and the Playstation/Xbox.

NFL minicamp is already underway and training camp is on the horizon. We’re getting closer and closer to football. And with the regular season just a few months away, EA Sports is set to drop the newest version of Madden at the beginning of August. It is going to be the best game in years.

I do not normally purchase the new Madden games for a few different reasons. For one, I just prefer the NCAA game in terms of recruiting, Road to Glory, etc. I also think the “rah rah” of the college atmospheres make for a more fun experience. However, the biggest reason that I typically skip out on the Madden franchise stems from a lack of update. The only reason to buy the new game is for the roster.

Not this year!

EA Sports dropped its official trailer at the beginning of June. You will notice a major difference in terms of the graphics. It looks a lot like what you would see when you turn on the television on Sundays.

The difference between 25 and 26 is pretty significant.

The players look much more like themselves.

EA Sports also updated its gameplay to feel and look more like the real thing.

Even the celebrations are the most accurate they have ever been.

Justin Jefferson’s griddy looks legit.

I do not remember the last time that I purchased a Madden game. Maybe 2018? That is going to change this year. EA Sports finally updated the entire game instead of just the rosters. I’m in.
