About
NFL Blitz takes the idea of a normal football video game and turns it on its head with fewer players, bigger hits, and lots of personality.
What players say
An over-the-top arcade football smash that revels in late hits, suplexes, and no penalties, delivering fast, brutal, gleefully violent fun that fans consider the best pick-up-and-play football experience of its time.
