This discovery comes from YouTuber Doctre81, that discovered a listing titled"Online Software Engineer - (C++) - Madden", dating back to November 2020. Under the job demands, one section asks for 2 years of experience working on"Microsoft, Sony or Nintendo game consoles". That might not seem like much, but preceding EA job listings haven't included Nintendo within their standards.

At minimum, EA could be exploring a potential release. It is well worth keeping in mind that back in June 2020, EA verified it would launch seven Switch games from the 12-month period. June 2021 is only a few months away, and we have had six games confirmed since then, including Apex Legends before this past week.

That leaves one more to go, but awarded Madden's annual release program, EA could be waiting until the inescapable Madden NFL 22 -- as opposed to some Madden NFL 21 port -- considering they traditionally start in August. In any event, let's just hope it isn't another legacy variant, eh?

This year's rival teams have been determined. The Kansas City Chiefs will go up from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a conflict of the NFL's top quarterbacks, Patrick Mahomes and Tom Brady. As is now an annual tradition, Electronic Arts is celebrating the Super Bowl using a Madden NFL simulation. This year's Madden NFL 21 simulation game seems to predict a excellent game.
