In this unique twist, Bart joins forces with Joe Burrow and the Bengals, while Homer teams up with Dak Prescott and the Cowboys. The iconic father-son duo will even step in for gameplay moments, mixing classic Simpsons comedy with NFL action as Bart and Homer take their turns on offense and defense. And it wouldn’t be Springfield without Marge, Lisa, and Maggie—Marge and Lisa are set to interview players during the game, while Maggie controls the SkyCam, adding to the all-around Simpsons flair.

Fans can look forward to memorable appearances from beloved Simpsons characters voiced by original cast members, with plenty of skits and iconic show references sprinkled throughout. Each team’s sideline will have familiar faces cheering them on: Bart’s Bengals are supported by characters like Lisa, Milhouse, and Ralph, while Homer’s Cowboys rally with Moe, Barney, and Lenny.
