With all the protests happening this past weekend. EA Sports made an official statement about delaying the new Madden NFL 21 game.
Tomorrow, we had committed to celebrating Madden NFL 21 with you, but we’re not going to do that now.
We stand with our African American / Black community of friends, players, colleagues, and partners. Our immediate attention is on actions we can take to drive change against the unjust treatment and systemic bias that is plaguing the nation and our world.
We’ll find another time to talk football with you. Because this is bigger than a game, bigger than sports, and needs all of us to stand together and commit to change.
Lamar Jackson from the Baltimore Ravens will be on the cover of this years Madden game. Many gaming fans applauded that decision and will wait for the right time for the game to be released.
