Madden NFL 98 is a 1997 American football video game developed by Tiburon Entertainment and published by EA Sports for the PlayStation and Sega Saturn. Stormfront Studios ported the game to Microsoft Windows, while Tiertex Design Studios ported it to the Super Nintendo Entertainment System and Sega Genesis, with the latter versions published by THQ. The game's development focused on improving the Madden series' artificial intelligence. This aspect earned the game critical acclaim, with some reviewers considering it a new landmark for AI in football video games.

Madden NFL 98 was the last installment of the Madden series to be released for the SNES, Genesis, and Saturn, as well as the last to utilize 2D sprites on 3D playing fields. The PlayStation version of the game is playable in the collector's edition of Madden NFL 2005 with updated rosters.
