Fans can expect the game to arrive on 28 August! Again, this is unconfirmed but we can expect EA to give us a firm date during EA Play.

Cover star and Editions

Similarly to the accidental reveal of a release date, Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson let slip he will be on the Madden 21 cover in an interview.

Thanks to the Inside Xbox stream we know that Madden 21 is optimized for the Xbox Series X and will have Smart Delivery, meaning if you buy a copy at launch you can upgrade to a Series X copy for free.

Trailer

Fans were expecting to see a true gameplay trailer at the start of June. For obvious reasons EA delayed it.

That puts EA Play, on 18 June, as the most obvious time for us to finally see just what Madden 21 has in store for us.

From new game modes, a fresh Ultimate Team, or changes to Franchise Mode, EA Play is where we will hear from the Madden team about what the new game will contain.
