Imagining NFL 2K22 Arcade with all of this personality and unique characteristics.

[ElectricAggie]

An NFL game with exaggerated player models and animations while still playing like 11 on 11 football could be an awesome formula for a football title. It would basically be the football version of Super Mega Baseball. It would have simulation-like gameplay (no powerups or anything like that), but all of the visuals would suggest an arcade-style game. Hopefully something like that would be enough to skirt around the "non-simulation" restrictions.

This is the happy medium that hopefully happens, but we'll need to still see if they had that forethought in mind.

This may be the way. Probably have to alter some different rules as well

I didn't pay too much attention to commercials since they weren't that good so I missed this one. So yeah watching this almost seemed like it was a commercial for a new NFL video game and looked like it would be a fun game mixing in current players and HOF/Legend players. If this was the new 2K game, I'd buy it but if it came with MyGM/MyNFL/Franchise Mode, instant pre-order.

The commercial actually looked very similar to NBA Playgrounds:

And that game was released 3 years ago on last gen systems.

Perhaps the NFL used characters from the new NFL2K game but didn't want to attach 2K to it because TT wasn't ready to officially announce the game yet? Rumor is they wanted to release in Winter 2021 but the NFL wanted another date. If that's the case then the graphical side of the game is likely finished and the rest of the time is being used to add a few new features and QC (?). It wouldn't be a big ask out of 2K.

Either way, I think it's increasingly likely we get a souped up Playgrounds type game. I would be completely down for that with the hope:

- It's 11 on 11. This is #1 for me.
- They retain many of the same gameplay mechanics and animation style from APF and previous NFL2K games.
- There's customization features ala MyTeam and MyCareer in NBA2K games
- *Bonus* There is a simple yet over the top Franchise mode.
