“It’s been incredibly rewarding to grow the Madden NFL
experience alongside our players the past two years, and we’re
excited to deliver even more of the control, depth and immersion
they’re looking for in Madden NFL 25,” said Mike Mahar, Senior
Production Director, Madden NFL. “BOOM Tech has been multiple years
in the making and represents the most impactful FieldSENSE
improvement yet, and combined with a new audio and visual
experience across the game plus deepened modes and increased
customization, Madden NFL 25 will look, feel and sound
different.”
Madden NFL 25 gameplay on PS5®, Xbox Series X|S, and PC brings
new levels of control to players through FieldSENSE™ upgrades
powered by BOOM Tech, plus signature styles and new mechanics with
ball carriers, catching and pre-play, and a focus on football
fundamentals within blocking, playbooks, and more:
- Physics-Based Tackling: Cut loose and attack the
ball with powerful Hit Sticks, Cut Sticks, trucks, dives, and stiff
arms with more control and realism than ever. A new data-driven
physics system considers timing, momentum, weight, speed, strength,
and player ratings to inform 1-on-1 ball carrier impact for a wider
variety of explosive and authentic physical outcomes.
- Reloaded Hit Stick: Bring power in every phase of the
game. The re-engineered Hit Stick uses a timing-based mechanic to
provide more control determined by your angle of impact, stick
skill, and accuracy for cut sticks, big hits, and trucks, with more
realistic physical movements and results.
- Ball Carrier Control: Run the rock with unparalleled
confidence and command with the new Ball Carrier Balance and
Recovery System. Feel the impact of every hit and experience the
thrill of breaking tackles like never before with more realistic
and dynamic ball carrier experience. Absorb big hits, regain your
balance, and continue the drive, all based on the intensity of the
collision and the ratings of the players involved.
- Foundational Football: The latest additions to
FieldSENSE™ deliver increased authenticity in all three phases of
the game – offense, defense, and special teams – to celebrate and
reward fans' love of the NFL. New team-specific plays from some of
the NFL's most innovative play-callers bring enhanced strategy and
gameplay variety, including the new NFL hybrid kickoff. Signature
pre- and post-snap animations deliver a new level of immersion, and
all-new skill-mechanics for ball carriers, receivers, and defenders
provide players with ultimate control across the field.
A new era kicks off in Madden NFL 25 with a refreshed, deepened
feature set that brings players closer to NFL action than ever
before, and live game modes provide engaging ways for all football
fans to play throughout the year. Just some of the enhancements on
PS5®, Xbox Series X|S and PC include:
- Presentation: Play by play never sounded so good with
two additional commentary teams – Mike Tirico & Greg Olsen, and
Kate Scott & Brock Huard – across the game plus fresh pregame
montages, camera angles, environments, Super Bowl celebrations, and
immersive audio that looks, feels, and sounds different at every
level.
- Franchise: Recharged Franchise mode provides a rebuilt
NFL Draft night experience featuring Roger Goodell, a redesigned
Franchise Central that delivers dynamic storylines and strategic
insights, and more ways to customize your team and season on the
Team Builder website.
- Superstar Mode: Customize your avatar with new
archetypes, faces, hair, tattoos, and more. Utilize new Combine
drills to grow your avatar, then dominate The League, show off in
Showdown, and collect rewards in year-round live events and dynamic
seasonal experiences.
- Ultimate Team™: Build the ultimate roster with more
customization options that simplify lineup adjustments and include
new challenge types, Solo Seasons, and fresh playbook content every
update. Collect rewards with refreshed content all year long, and
experience new ways to play including events that feature a 6v6
arcade-like experience.
- Online H2H: Climb redesigned leaderboards by
playing competitive seasons and mastering the new ranked structure
in head-to-head divisions. Progress through divisions to gauge
success; only the best of the best will qualify for a spot in the
elite Top 100 division (on PS5®, Xbox Series X|S and PC).
