Actually EA Sports wanted to announce officially in the next few days Madden NFL 21 , but the publisher has decided to postpone the football game due to the current situation in the United States. In many parts of the United States, anger about the death of African-American George Floyd as a result of a police operation, general police violence and latent racism in US society (“Black Lives Matter”) is increasing. You can find more details e.g. in the FAZ.
EA Sports’ statement reads: “We stand by our African-American / dark-headed community of friends, players, colleagues and partners. Our immediate focus is on measures that we can take to address the unfair treatment and systemic prejudices that the nation and plague our world. We will find another time to talk to you about football, because this is bigger than a game, bigger than sport and requires that we all stand together and work for change. ”
