EA reveals NFL Tour, arcade football for casual gamers

Electronic Arts is launching a second football franchise with the NFL license. NFL Tour is being billed as more of an arcade-style sports game and "will bring the spectacle of a traveling NFL road show alive" for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

Both "intuitive controls" and an appeal to "casual gamers" are mentioned in the press release, indicating EA sees this game as intended for a different audience not wanting the detail of Madden (or maybe even Blitz). The game's site is set up to show a teaser trailer featuring the logo and ... well, not much else, really.

NFL Tour is scheduled for release January 2008.
