Take-Two has a busy year ahead anyway, with 18 planned releases. According to the Take-Two earnings report, six of those are “immersive core titles”: The Quarry, Marvel’s Midnight Suns, NBA 2K23, WWE 2K23, PGA Tour 2K23, and Kerbal Space Program 2 (which has been confirmed for release in early 2023 as of this morning, after previously being pushed to sometime between April 2022 and March 2023).
There are also eight mobile games in the works, a new sports title from 2K (likely its NFL arcade game), a new franchise from Private Division, Tales from the Borderlands 2, and "one new iteration of a previously-released title available for purchase".

Seemed like a long shot anyways. At best I thought we might get the title or a passing reference to the game that could tell us if it’s more realistic style or street/playgrounds style
Have to be getting close now tho. First week of the season is a little over 3 months away

Straus said they have nothing to say.
Straus skirted around the question as if it was a top secret Pentagon document. The fact that they are being so tight lipped could mean one of two things. Either it's so casual that they don't want to hype us up only to disappoint us or it's something special and they want to have a big reveal event to tell us everything about it in detail. Considering the cost the NFL license and the 17 year absence from the NFL gaming scene and the passion 2K has for football I'm still willing to bet on the latter.

You have a point
That NFL License had to cost them millions
Only for them to make a playground type of game and expect to make a lot of sales isn't realistic
Just look at WWE battle grounds i dont remember any kids or casual going crazy for that game
Plus most of the gamers from 2k5 grew up
If Little Timmy dont beg mommy to buy this new NFL Arcade
2k might be in trouble eventually financial wise

The third possibility - and the most likely one - is that the game, whatever it is, is still in development and is not in a state where it is ready for the average video game consumer to view or play it.
I've actually played in-development alpha builds of Madden NFL games. Those in-dev builds were absolutely not ready for public consumption, and there's a reason EA waits until June and July to start showing off the latest version of the game; it simply is not remotely closed to finished any earlier than that. The in-dev Madden games I played were full of obvious bugs, crashed frequently, had obvious placeholder art, had unfinished UI, and missing functionality.
AAA games being busted junk during the height of their development cycle is not unique to Madden, it is often the case everywhere. AAA video games take a long while to put together - especially to get them to a state where they are something close to playable - and the pieces often don't start locking into place until the final couple months of the development cycle. There are too many people simultaneously putting together too many things, and it takes away to not only make each piece but also to fit them together.
If 2K isn't ready to show their game yet, an average person who isn't intimately familiar with game development isn't going to appreciate anything they would have the ability to show off right now. Whatever they have at this moment today probably crashes frequently or is full of bugs which we would not understand, if it is even recognizable as a video game at all.
Anyone who has been waiting for this game with baited breath needs to take a step back and relax. There's something coming, and when 2K is ready to show it off they will absolutely let us know. In the meantime, let's afford them some patience.
