The sports betting market is one of the biggest out there; there is no denying this. The market has been dominating online entertainment for a good decade now. Why? Because they always stay on top of technology and changes. This seems to be the nature of the industry because they've done it again. Reputable sports betting platforms are again introducing all kinds of upgrades to their sites to create seamless, smooth and informative experiences for players.

Advancement sounds like a...

Ballin'.

Those of you with fond memories of the NBA Street games will be happy to hear that its spirit is alive and well in the upcoming NBA The Run. This upcoming sports title is set to deliver fast-paced 3v3 street hoops to the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam this June.

NBA The Run is the first title from the newly formed Play by Play Studios. This should come as no surprise, but Play by Play Studios includes several industry veterans that worked at Electronic...

This Fest is sure to be a slam dunk.

From Monday, December 8th through to Monday, December 15th Valve will host a Steam Sports Fest. This Fest will serve up all sorts of deals on sports games. You've got your football (both kinds!), basketball, tennis, hockey, golf, boxing, and so on.

This Steam Sports Fest will also include some non-traditional sports titles. Did you know that there are sports games where you just manage a team and you don't actually play the sport...

More places to play a bit of the ol' footy!

Electronic Arts shared new details on EA Sports FC 26 today. These new details include new partners, leagues, and stadiums not present in last year's release.

EA Sports FC 26 boasts it includes over 20,000 athletes across over 750 clubs and national teams, over 120 stadiums, and over 35 leagues. There will be over 300 "global football partners" in FC 26, and this includes both men's and women's football. There is...

CTE not included.

EA Sports Madden NFL 26 has officially been released. Electronic Arts calls it "the most explosive, authentic, and immersive football experience in franchise history." Which is, of course, something that they would say. What, did you expect them to say that it's "more of the same?"

Madden NFL 26 touts new "QB and Coach DNA for player-specific traits, signature playstyles, and adaptive strategy." There are also things like...

It's been 17 years, EA. C'mon.

Electronic Arts unveiled EA Sports NHL 26 with a release date set for September 12, 2025. Unsurprisingly, NHL 26 is only coming to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, but not PC nor any Switch platform.

It's a bit of a joke at this point really. Electronic Arts seems to be extremely weird about which sports franchises they bring to PC and which they don't. Madden? PGA Tour? Soccer? Yep, they're on PC. Then you have things like College Football,...

A trio of the best athletes in basketball today.

2K announced the professional basketball athletes that will grace the covers for NBA 2K26.

The NBA 2K26 Standard Edition will feature Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Gilgeous-Alexander is the Oklahoma City Thunder Point Guard, a three-time All-Star, the 2024-25 KIA Most Valuable Player, and the NBA Finals Most Valuable Player.

For the NBA 2K26 WNBA Edition (GameStop exclusive for the physical release in the US),...

Still no word about Mascot Mode.

A new year of College Football is here from EA Sports. After revealing the cover athletes early this week, it's now time for some of the gameplay changes and additions coming in EA Sports College Football 26.

College Football 26 will include over 2,700 new players, thousands of real college athletes, and "authentic coaching styles from more than 300 real-world coaches." There are also 136 FBS schools available for you to choose...

Different cover athletes also revealed.

Electronic Arts revealed a couple of different covers for EA Sports College Football 26 today alongside a release date announcement of July 10th. On the cover of the standard edition is Alabama wide receiver Ryan Williams and Ohio State wide receiver Jeremiah Smith. The Deluxe Edition features "college football legends alongside prominent coaches, beloved mascots, and other standout players."

As expected, an "MVP...

Free and paid golf unlockables await.

2K detailed plans for what players can expect through some of PGA Tour 2K25's post-launch Seasons. This includes the addition of new, free courses. Other new content includes new quests and challenges, increases to Evolution Tiers in Equipment Progression, as well as leaderboard resets.

Beyond these seasonal content updates, 2K will offer seasonal Clubhouse Passes to players. There will be both a free track and a paid track in these...

New shot types, ball flights, and roll mechanics are just a few of the highlights.

2K just announced PGA Tour 2K25 and with it comes a variety of gameplay enhancements and additions. New EvoSwing mechanics add in new shot types, ball flights, roll physics, and various visual improvements. This new release will also include a more customizable MyCareer mode and creation tools.

This year, PGA Tour 2K25 will come in three different flavors. Those who pick up the Standard...

It is once again time for some soccer, or "football" for our non-American friends.

Electronic Arts just released EA Sports FC 25 today for PlayStation, Xbox, Switch, and PC. This includes both active generations of PlayStation and Xbox. From what I can gather, the PC release has feature parity with the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S versions of the game and retails on these next-gen platforms at $69.99.

One of those next-gen only features is called EA Sports...

The soundtrack includes a Master Chief approved amount of songs.

Electronic Arts just released the official soundtrack for EA Sports FC 25. This year's soundtrack includes 117 songs from a variety of artists. Technically, there are 114 tracks out today with another three being added post launch.

Electronic Arts says that the playlist for this year's game "spotlights an eclectic range of genres including Elyanna's experimental Arabic-Latin pop fusion; South African...

The next-gen version is on PC for the first time.

Sorry, I meant to say that the "new gen" version is available for the first time on PC. NBA 2K25 is now available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, and PC. As stated, the PC release is now the "new gen" version of the game for the first time. That means it has feature parity with the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S versions of the game.

NBA 2K25 boasts some new features...

ICE-Q promises to deliver "unprecedented realism."

The teams at EA Sports must be in a constant competition with each other to create the most ridiculous name for a game system possible. Madden NFL 25 has that whole FieldSENSE and BOOM Tech stuff going on. Now, NHL 25 has the ICE-Q system.

NHL 25 and its ICE-Q system is aiming to be released on October 4, 2024 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. There is, yet again, no PC release of the game planned....
