Electronic Arts has exciting news for football fans as they've officially announced the release date for the latest installment in the Madden NFL series. Madden NFL 26 is set to hit the shelves on August 14, 2025, with an exclusive three-day early access window for those who pre-order the Deluxe Edition, starting from August 11. This new chapter in the iconic franchise will be playable across a range of platforms, including PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S, PC through the EA app for Windows, Steam, Epic, and the newly introduced Nintendo Switch 2.
