Madden NFL '96 is a football video game designed for the 1995 NFL season, licensed by the NFL. Publisher EA Sports intended for it to be the first licensed NFL game for the PlayStation, but the PlayStation version was delayed and ultimately cancelled, with the game being published only for previous-generation consoles, PCs, and handhelds. Compared to previous Madden NFL games, the AI has been boosted and can now hurry in two-minute drill situations, spike the ball, and cover the receivers with better efficiency. The handheld versions did not have NFL licensing, so the NFL was removed from the title, and they were released as Madden 96. In addition to the 16-bit console and portable versions, a DOS version was also released under the title of Madden NFL Football: Limited Edition in 1996.

The game was well received by critics, with the improved A.I. garnering the most praise. It was the last to explicitly be endorsed by the NFL on Fox, although a 16-bit rendition of the NFL on Fox theme by Scott Schreer would continue to be used in Madden for several years afterward.

Cary Brabham of the Carolina Panthers and Gordon Laro of the Jacksonville Jaguars are featured on the cover. They are depicted in a generic action shot of the 1995 Pro Football Hall of Fame Game, an exhibition contest which was the first game in franchise history for both expansion teams. Brabham and Laro were also wearing the same jersey number (#40).
