Sony is giving away Madden NFL 16 for free as PlayStation and Xbox battle over bundles

Microsoft and Sony are in a battle of bundles, and that competition is forcing each company to offer some pretty great deals.

Right now, you can buy the 1TB Xbox One Madden bundle that comes with the console and the physical version of the football game for $400. This the latest pack-in game that the big console companies have designed to convince gamers to choose one system over the other with a major new release like Madden NFL 16. But Sony isn’t going to let Microsoft woo NFL fans unchallenged. The company is working with GameStop to offer a digital version of Madden NFL 16 to anyone who buys a new PlayStation 4 from August 25 through August 30 (via NeoGAF).
