Electronic Arts has announced that EA Sports Fantasy Football will be launching a new website at fantasy.easports.com. The site will offer fantasy football applications specifically for the Xbox 360 and PS3 game consoles later this summer.

The web-based fantasy football service is free but PS3 and Xbox owners will need to pay for the download. For the first time fantasy football players can play their teams in Madden NFL 2009. Users will also be able to download the EA Sports Football Live draft Tracker to provide a fantasy draft with the fanfare and presentation of authentic pro football drafts on the PS3 or Xbox.

"EA SPORTS Fantasy Football this year takes fantasy football leagues to the next level," said EA SPORTS Fantasy Football Executive Producer Jeremy Strauser. "Through our draft day and live scoring applications we have made fantasy football a truly interactive and innovative experience. In addition, we have created integration between our EA SPORTS Fantasy Football product and Madden NFL 09 which gives the football gamer the complete football gaming experience."
