A TV show about EA Sports' Madden games hits Prime Video on November 26


Prime Video just announced a November 26 premiere date for It’s in the Game: Madden NFL. This four-part docuseries will explore the history behind gaming’s most popular football franchise.

The four-part docuseries will explore “one of the biggest video games of all time” that “became a worldwide phenomenon, spanning generations.” The show will explore Madden’s “archaic 8-bit origins to its success as an annual must have.” Prime Video says EA Sports has given it access to the vaults, so there should be plenty of new footage for diehard fans. As the story goes, EA founder Trip Hawkins approached commentator John Madden back in 1984 for his endorsement and expertise, but the game took four long years of development before coming out in 1988. This extended development time was allegedly due to Madden himself, who demanded a realistic football experience.
