EA is planning on launching its next Madden NFL game on August 27. Based on a new post on the franchise’s official website, it could be seeing a small name change.

As pictured above, the graphic posted on Madden’s site indicates that the upcoming release may be called “Madden 25”. The football series is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year.

The benefits of restructuring also extend directly to gamers. Once the new division is in place, Nintendo will be able to “avoid software lineup shortages or software development delays which tend to happen just after the launch of new hardware.”
