On the plus side, this company worked on Ryse and Forza 2, both console/PC games. On the downside they were Xbox one exclusives. Looks like I may have to buy another console.

*edit Both those games were produced under the Microsoft studios umbrella. Doesn't Microsoft have a partnership with the NFL of some kind?

Interesting point KJ, yes Microsoft did partner with the NFL for exclusive content at the launch of Xbox 1 and Microsoft did have NFL Fever prior to the NFL license going exclusive to EA. Hmmmmmm, the plot thickens [cue dramatic chipmunk].

Hopefully, it's more than just this, tablets and fantasy football stuff.

I think this stuff is already done. Surfaces were all over the sidelines (and commercials about them during the games) this year. And I remember X1 commercials advertising people watching football, checking fantasy stuff, and Skyping all through the console.

It's a 5 year contract though, so lots of time for more stuff to come about.

True, of course it's all just speculation, nothing else we can do right now but it's interesting that other than EA, Microsoft is the only other gaming company with NFL ties. Like you stated, their partnership was only revealed to encompass certain aspects, yet who knows how deep the specifics might run or what's transpired with it since its' inception.

Considering Joesph Harford mentioned working on Joe Montana for a NFL game and was rendering NFL stadiums, it seems plausible that the company behind this could be Microsoft.

All that said, we still don't know for sure the NFL license is even exclusive anymore, so there's that too. E3 2015 can't come fast enough, lol.

That's just it, though, nothing about the future has been advertised.

So, is it status quo, or is there more?

Let's hope for more.

Stay tuned.

Microsoft possibly having an exclusive NFL game to combat Sony's exclusive MLB title? Interesting.

Maybe that's why the specific systems the game will be out on haven't been announced. I think at this point it has to be almost certain this is not just going to be a mobile game.
