During the Xbox One reveal event, Microsoft announced that it was entering into a new partnership with the National Football League, designed to offer fans of the sport more ways to interact with their favorite experience.

The NFL management and Microsoft will introduce new ways for gamers to watch the matches, including via a new streaming service that will get more details later during the year.

Fans will be able to watch a game while at the same time interacting online with their buddies and also seeing how their fantasy league players perform and what changes could increase their overall performance.

Microsoft also says that Xbox One will allow EA Sports to increase the level of realism in its Madden NFL franchise using the new Ignite engine.

The Xbox One will be launched this year and all NFL-related content is supposed to be offered once the console is out.
