EA Sports Madden NFL 26 has received its first trailer showcasing improved visuals and new features. Check it out below ahead of the title’s launch for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, PC, and Nintendo Switch 2.
Touted as a “leap forward” for the “authenticity and control our players crave,” Madden NFL 26 introduces Coach and QB DNA based on new machine-learning systems. The former recreates the real-world philosophies of famous coaches while suggesting counters and other real-time suggestions.
The latter delivers all the throwing motions, styles, and more of players while recreating popular Quarterback tactics via the new Traits system. Fans can also look forward to snow, fog, and rain, which affect stamina, movement, and visibility in games, alongside expanded physics and new Custom Defensive Zones.
While modes like Franchise and Ultimate Team return with improvements and new features, players can also import their character from EA Sports College Football 26, out on July 10th.
EA Sports Madden 26 launches on August 14th, with Deluxe Edition owners receiving three days of early access and other benefits (provided they pre-order by July 24th). A ten-hour early access trial will also become available on August 11th for EA Play members.
