Madden NFL 24 Announced
REDWOOD CITY, Calif.--(June 7, in the year of our Lord
2023)-- Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: EA) and EA
SPORTS™ today revealed EA SPORTS Madden NFL 24 with new gameplay
depth that delivers more control and realism on PlayStation®5,
Xbox Series X|S, and PC, through the next evolution of
FieldSENSE™ and the debut of SAPIEN Technology. SAPIEN delivers
a leap forward in NFL realism by rebuilding the character
skeleton to provide more body definition and variation to
physiques on the field. SAPIEN makes characters more human and
anatomically correct, improving authentic athletic motion and
with FieldSENSE, creates true-to-life movement patterns on the
gridiron.
Dozens of improvements to foundational football elevate the
Madden NFL 24 football experience, while the return of
fan-favorite Superstar Mode and mini-games (on PS5™, Xbox Series
X|S and PC versions) deliver fun new ways to play and learn the
game. Plus, for the first time, fans can play with friends
regardless of their platform with cross-play support and feature
parity on PS5™, Xbox Series X|S and PC in head-to-head and
certain online multiplayer modes.
“We set a new foundation for football gameplay with the
introduction of FieldSENSE last year, which was one of the
best-selling years in Madden NFL franchise history, and we’re
going even deeper in the areas our fans want most in Madden NFL
24,” said Mike Mahar, Senior Producer, Madden NFL. “We’ve added
more ways to play with mini-games and Superstar, more realism
through FieldSENSE, deeper immersion with dozens of foundational
football improvements and the introduction of SAPIEN Technology
– all of which bring the game closer to what fans see from the
NFL.”
Buffalo Bills fans have something special to celebrate as their
quarterback, Josh Allen, becomes the first Bills player ever to
land the cover of Madden NFL. One of the most dynamic playmakers
in the league, Allen owns the NFL record for total touchdowns
(177) through five career seasons, which propelled him to become
the most used player in Madden NFL 23.
“As a fan of Madden NFL since childhood, I’m honored to be the
first Buffalo Bills player on the cover, and I wouldn’t have
gotten here without the support of my team and Bills Mafia,”
said Josh Allen. “Superstar and mini-games are back in Madden,
and I’m really excited for fans to see how the experiences have
evolved.”
Gameplay in Madden NFL 24 for PS5™, Xbox Series X|S, and PC is
more realistic, with improvements to FieldSENSE delivering
increased control in throwing, catching, and tackling and SAPIEN
delivering more body definition that improves the fluidity of
athletic motion. More upgrades available on these platforms
include:
Hit Everything: New contested catch tackles provide more control
to play the receiver and new tackle types like: Wrap tackles,
Scoop tackles and all-new Hit-Stick animations add personality
and more variety on defense. Dynamic branching tech now expands
to blocking as well.
Skill Based Passing: Skill Based Passing makes throwing and
catching feel more fluid. An overhauled catching system ensures
that receivers consistently maintain their momentum when
catching the ball. It feels better than ever to hit a receiver
in stride, giving you more control to get loose and get up-field
after the catch. A variety of new passing and catching
animations capture the authenticity that players expect – dive
catches, no-look passes and some game-changing moments never
before seen in Madden.
Foundational Football: Enhancements across blocking, ball
carrier pathfinding, quarterback decision making and defensive
back behaviors not only provide confidence your AI teammates
will execute your gameplan the way you intend, but also deliver
an authentic challenge. An all-new post-play engine brings the
emotion of an NFL game to life through more realistic reactions
and more emotive celebrations and frustrations.
Superstar Mode: Superstar returns with modernized versions of
beloved experiences like your journey through the NFL Combine
and Road To The Draft. New additions like 3v3 Superstar Showdown
give fans the ability to live their NFL fantasy with friends.
Mini-Games: Test your skills with dozens of new mini-games,
including moving obstacles and destructible targets in Franchise
training camp or weekly strategy; every week in Superstar Mode;
and playable from the main menu.
Franchise: Added depth in one of the most popular Madden
NFLmodes addresses top community requests like contract
restructuring, trade improvements and deeper customization to
name a few. Plus, mini-games are back with training camp and
weekly training.
