Fans of EA Sports’ “Madden NFL” can expect sweeping changes to the next installment of the beloved video game franchise.
A report from Mike Straw of Insider Gaming claimed that “Madden NFL 24” is being considered a “make or break” game for the franchise. Sources informed Straw that changes will come to the “Madden NFL” leadership group if the next game encounters similar problems as “Madden NFL 23.”
Obviously, it’s going to be several months until EA Sports reveals some of the changes and new features for “Madden NFL 24.” In the report, Straw mentioned two changes that EA Sports will be focused on:
“As far as what fans can expect from Madden 24, things are being kept tight-lipped after gameplay updates were leaked for Madden 23. That said, one area the studio is focusing on is the single-player and offline experience.
For Franchise mode, sources say that the developers feel the mode is almost there with smaller additions — aside from the larger fixes to the database issues — being what’s needed to keep players invested. That said, things like better contract management is said to be one of the higher priorities for the mode, though it’s unclear if it will be ready for Madden 24.”
The “Madden NFL” video game franchise started back in 1988. The game sells millions of copies worldwide annually, but technical issues with “Madden NFL 23” has led to plenty of backlash and criticism from gamers.
Regardless of what potential issues may arise for the next installment, EA Sports can expect high sales again in 2024. Users will complain about the game all the time, but at the end of the day, many of them are still going to shell out dollars for the latest installment each year.
