Madden NFL 26 For Switch 2 – Preorder First Entry For A Nintendo Console In 13 Years
Madden is returning to a Nintendo console for the first time in over a decade when it lands on Switch 2 this August. The Nintendo Switch 2 version of Madden NFL 26 is now available to preorder at Amazon and Walmart for $70, the same price that you’ll find preorders for on PS5 and Xbox Series X. In addition to the standard edition, Madden 26 will get a Digital Deluxe Edition and MVP Bundle, with the latter offering access to EA Sports College Football 26 on PS5 or Xbox Series, too.
The return of simulation football to a Nintendo console isn’t the only major change to the release model of EA Sports’ popular annual sim; Madden 26 won’t be playable on PS4 or Xbox One for the first time since Madden NFL 13. Ironically, Madden 13 was the last game in the series to appear on a Nintendo console (Wii U).
Here’s a look at all Madden NFL 26 preorders–as more retailers open inventory, we’ll update this list accordingly.
Madden NFL 26 Preorder Bonuses
Preorder Madden NFL 26’s standard edition to get the MUT Cover Athlete Elite Player Item, Franchise Coach Ability Points, and Super Star Legendary XP Boost. There are a few other preorder bonuses when reserving the Deluxe Edition or MVP Edition, and we’ll cover these below.
$70 | Releases August 14
Preorder this version of Madden NFL 26 to get the base game and any eligible preorder bonuses. We’re still waiting to learn more about the changes coming to this year’s installment of the hit series, but expect the usual assortment of graphical updates, gameplay tweaks, and improvements to Ultimate Team, Franchise, and Superstar modes.
Physical edition preorders for Madden NFL 26 on Switch 2, PS5, and Xbox Series X are live at Amazon and Walmart for $70.
Like most third-party titles for Switch 2, Madden 26 is a Game-Key Card, which means a download will be required to play the game at launch.
$100 | Releases August 11
Preorder the Deluxe Edition to get the base game plus the following:
- 3-Days Early Access
- 4600 MUT Points
- Early Access Solo Challenges
- Season 1 Elite Player Item
- Player Card Exclusive Item
- MUT Cover Athlete Elite Player Item
- Franchise Coach Ability Points
- Super Star Legendary XP Boost
The 3-days early access is the big draw here, though there are plenty of in-game goodies to give your career a nice jumpstart. You can preorder digital versions on the PS Store, Xbox Store, and Steam (the Switch 2 version is not yet available to preorder).
$150 | Releases August 11 (Madden) / July 11 (College Football)
Get Madden NFL 26 Deluxe Edition and EA Sports College Football Deluxe Edition for just $150. That’s a $50 discount compared to buying them individually, so give the MVP Bundle a look if you plan on picking up both football games later this year. Here’s a look at what you’ll get for preordering.
