Electronic Arts has announced a new strategy football game, NFL Head Coach 09, is currently in development at EA Tiburon and will be available for Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 — presumably around the start of the 2008-09 NFL season.
EA has designed NFL Head Coach 09 as the complimentary NFL experience to Madden. Players will spend each game on the sideline, making the same decisions an NFL coach has to make during the course of a game. Play continues off the field with drafts, scouting, playbook building, and more.
“In NFL Head Coach 09, the gamer has complete control of their franchise’s destiny,” says NFL Head Coach 09 Executive Producer Jeremy Strauser. “From draft day to game day, the gamers” decisions impact their team’s success and make or break a team’s road to the Super Bowl.”
Indianapolis Colts coach Tony Dungy will grace the cover art, which we hope to share in the coming days.
