Madden 25 PS4 Cover
2K OLF will be on PS4 this fall

Well after yesterday’s events from E3, we at 2K Online Franchise are proud to announce we will be moving the league to Sony’s Playstation 4. Huge thoughts went into this decision and so far the response from league coaches has been overwhelmingly positive.

We can officially confirm that the coaches for the the 49ers, Raiders, Patriots, Redskins, Cowboys, Giants, Vikings and Bears will be on PS4. 49ers head coach Michael Nguyen said he was ready for this announcement “We want the best and not afraid to switch it up to make it happen. Iphone to Samsung Galaxy S4, Xbox 360 to PS4, winning!!” Redskins assistant coach aka BigMike was also thrilled with the decision “I was hoping we would be PS4!”

We know not all will go PS4, if that is the case please make the decision knowing all the facts about Xbox One. Below are links that explain Microsoft’s new strict policies regarding DRM, used games, mandatory game installs, mandatory internet connection and other restrictions that drove our decision to change platforms.

 

 

 

Thank you all who have been with us from the start, we started this league 3 years ago and thank you to the core members who have stuck with us season after season.
