Madden 20: 8 Things We Already Know

1. Franchise Has More Life

Last year's Franchise was hardly crap, though it could've done with a tad more in the way of real-life immersion to break things up between games. Anyone thinking the same will get their wish thanks to Madden 20's revamped feature set.

Remember those old radio show segments in Madden 05 that gave every game a sense of importance that felt missing in 19? It's that sort of thing we're talking about, and the in-game text messaging between coaches and players on your team should go some way to adding that same level of engagement off-field.

There are branching dialogue options, conversations to have about upcoming in-game challenges and more this time. Fingers crossed EA don't stop there. They'd be doing themselves (and the longevity of Franchise) a favour if there were randomised storylines that popped up to keep things fresh between different career saves.

All reports suggest those will be in there too. New scenarios should make for a much bigger, more fleshed-out game world to live in.
