Madden NFL 26 Mobile - NFL Kickoff
September 5, 2025
Let The Games Begin
The 2025 NFL season kicked off with a bang on Thursday as the reigning Super Bowl LIX champion Philadelphia Eagles hosted their NFC East rivals, the Dallas Cowboys.
Not only that, but the NFL is continuing its global expansion with a record-setting seven international games scheduled for the 2025 season.
The series kicks off on September 5 with a historic game in São Paulo, Brazil, where the Kansas City Chiefs will face the Los Angeles Chargers.
Following the Brazil opener, the series moves to Europe with a packed schedule.
Dublin, Ireland, will host its first-ever regular season NFL game on September 28, as the Minnesota Vikings take on the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The action then shifts to London, which is set to host three games: the Vikings will face the Cleveland Browns on October 5, followed by the Denver Broncos vs. the New York Jets on October 12.
The final London game will see the Los Angeles Rams play the Jacksonville Jaguars on October 19.
The European tour concludes with two more landmark games.
On November 9, the Atlanta Falcons will play the Indianapolis Colts in Berlin, Germany, and then, finally, the International Series culminates in Madrid, Spain, on November 16, as the Washington Commanders and Miami Dolphins face off!
Now, with all that scheduling taken care of… let’s take a look at how we’re celebrating this fresh new season!
How About Kicking It Up A Notch?
The brand new NFL Kickoff event has arrived in Madden NFL 26 Mobile, bringing a new Kickoff-themed Blitz Map for you to conquer, as you crush challenges to earn Kickoff Tokens, and Event Pass Points, as well as a shot at some awesome, heavy-hitting players who are just gunning to kick it off.
And, in honor of the many glorious games we’re getting over the next few weeks, we’ve got two new Journey Maps that are packed with fresh new challenges inspired by the NFL's first two weeks of games, and offering up a bunch of rewards.
The first Journey Map is unlocked right from the jump, covering the first week of games, and then the 2nd Journey Map will unlock in the second week.
But of course that’s not all, Sportsfans…
We’ve also got a Game Day Challenges Map, where events are tied to real-life game days, and new challenges unlock on those specific days, giving players a reason to log in and play throughout the week!
