Update News
Madden NFL 13 Demo Now Available on XBLA and PSN
August 14, in the year of our Lord 2012 –
Football season starts early as fans can now download the free
Madden NFL 13 demo through Xbox LIVE® and PlayStation Network®.
Revisit the dramatic 2012 NFC Championship game as the New York
Giants take on the San Francisco 49ers, featuring brand new Nike
uniforms, or opt for a bicoastal matchup with the Seattle
Seahawks vs. Washington Redskins in their classic Nike throwback
jerseys. The demo will provide fans with the opportunity to dive
into some of the new features of Madden NFL 13, including Total
Control Passing, Ball Hawk and the highly anticipated debut of
the Infinity Engine. Fans can also get their first taste of new
commentary team Jim Nantz and Phil Simms in the 3-D broadcast
booth.
Madden NFL 13 delivers physics you can feel on every play, and
will connect you to the NFL and other fans like never before.
Powered by the all-new Infinity Engine, every impact on the
field is more intense; every battle is more authentic; and no
two plays will every look or feel the same.
This year the passing game has been completely revamped, with
new features on both sides of the ball. Total Control Passing
provides more options than ever, and allows quarterbacks to lead
receivers away from coverage and into open spaces on the field.
Conversely, opportunistic defenders can utilize the new Ball
Hawk mechanic to aggressively attack passes in flight and
attempt swats and interceptions. Ball Hawk rewards risk-takers
with more spectacular defensive plays; but be careful, as missed
attempts can lead to wide-open receivers and big plays for the
offense.
Madden NFL 13 marks the biggest investment in gameplay in
franchise history, including Kinect™ for Xbox 360® integration
that puts fans at the line making all the calls. Fans can take
advantage of the Kinect for Xbox 360 to make pre-snap
adjustments and audibles on offense and defense with their
voice. Changing plays, calling hot routes and making
player-specific adjustments can all be handled without a
controller, streamlining the process and giving fans a whole new
way to attack the opposition.
This year, sharing demo game results can be truly rewarding, as
anyone who tweets their score in-game with the hashtag
#Madden13Demo will be entered for a chance to win a free copy of
the game. 13 free games will be given away every day for 13
days, and each day one lucky winner will take home a VIP kit
filled with a copy of Madden NFL 13, a special edition 64GB
iTouch, a pair of EA SPORTS headphones, and a Detroit Lions
mini-helmet signed by Madden NFL 13 cover athlete Calvin
Johnson, Jr.
Fans are also encouraged to use these final pre-launch weeks to
create their digital twin for Madden NFL 13. This is the first
time that players will be able to put themselves in the game
with Game Face, allowing them to lead virtual versions of
themselves to gridiron glory. Visit
http://www.easports.com/gameface to create a future
superstar for use in the retail edition Madden NFL 13.
From top to bottom, Madden NFL 13 is the most complete overhaul
the series has seen in a generation. The power of the Infinity
Engine fundamentally changes the action on the field, while
Connected Careers rewrites the rules of what career and
franchise modes should look like. Add in Total Control Passing
and Ball Hawk and Madden NFL 13 is set to deliver the most
authentic NFL experience ever. Get in early and see for yourself
what everyone will be talking about when Madden NFL 13 launches
on August 28th.
