The league and 2K announced a multiyear partnership in a Tuesday press release, revealing they will join forces to revive an old pairing that has not been in place since 2004. There were no details regarding specific game titles and release dates for the multiple future non-simulation football video games to come, but 2K said the projects will launch in 2021.

EA is still claiming they have the exclusive rights for simulation football though. Maybe this will be a NFL Blitz thing?

“EA SPORTS is the exclusive publisher of NFL simulation games, and our partnership with the NFL and NFLPA remains unchanged. Our agreements have always allowed for non-exclusive development of non-simulation games on various platforms. Our commitment to NFL fans, which spans almost 30 years, has never been stronger, and we’re having our biggest year yet. Madden NFL 20 is the most successful game ever in the franchise, and new modes like Superstar KO and our Madden NFL esports broadcasts are growing the fan base. We’ll be building on that momentum with more new and different experiences, on more platforms and with new ways to play, in the years to come.”

Sources familiar with the situation tell The Hollywood Reporter that EA's deal expires at the end of the 2021 NFL season, in early 2022. Unsurprisingly, multiple parties have expressed interest in the rights and 2K and Take-Two's new deal shows the company's high interest in an expanded partnership.

Edit: Well this is disappointing "The new 2K, NFL games are described as "non-simulation football game experiences" and specifics on developers, exact titles and release dates are yet to be revealed."
