Madden NFL 15 is an upcoming American football sports video game based on the National Football League and published by EA Sports. The game was announced for the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One consoles on April 28, 2014, and is expected for release on August 26, 2014 in the United States and three days later in Europe.[1] On May 8, 2014, EA Sports began hosting a cover vote via ESPN to elect the cover athlete for the game.[2]
Cover vote
Due to the late release of the game, EA created a much smaller bracket than the previous years with a cover vote. It featured a 16 player bracket with offensive and defensive players. On June 6, 2014, Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman was announced as the official cover athlete.[3] He is only the second defensive player to be featured solo on the cover of Madden NFL, and only the third athlete to ever win a Super Bowl and earn the Madden cover in the same year.[4] Also featured in the bracket were Alshon Jeffrey, Jimmy Graham, Demaryius Thomas, Luke Kuechly, Colin Kaepernick, Nick Foles, Cam Newton, Antonio Brown, Jamaal Charles, A.J. Green, LeSean McCoy, T.Y. Hilton, Andrew Luck, and Alfred Morris.[5]
Development
The game was announced in late April 2014. It was shown in a release video featuring NFL linebacker and Defensive Player of the Year, Luke Kuechly.[6] A few months later in early June, the first gameplay trailer was released highlighting a focus on the defensive side of the ball, and also featured Luke Kuechly much like the trailer prior.[7]
