Madden NFL 21 is another blatant recycling of last year’s edition of the „simulation“ of the American football. Sadly, most of the modes remained the same. Gameplay received a few minor tweaks, and in the end it still persists as a cash grab not worth anybody’s time.

Madden NFL says goodbye to a generation with more questions than answers and with an uncertain perspective on what may happen in the years to come.

For NFL diehards, there remains hundreds of gaming hours at your disposal in Madden 21. These same diehards – much like players of EA’s NHL and Sony’s The Show – will be left with the impression they’ve played this game before, however.

(Originally made in 2020) I didn't get the chance to announce it last year but Madden NFL 20 was horrendously bad in gameplay and engagement. Madden NFL 21 literally copies most if not all things that were in Madden NFL 19. The gameplay, and physique of players has always been unrealistic since about Madden NFL 13 or 15. It infuriates me how terrible the games are scripted and not all about realism. This game series since Madden NFL 13, has been beyond trash. EA is infamous for being the worst at developing games. Enough is enough, it started with Battlefront, and NBA Live, and it all ends in Madden.

EA hasn't birthed a whole new concept this year, but the game doesn't break what has been working all this time, even if it comes at the cost of feeling stale to series veterans.

One of the best madden games imo, really fun especially the story mode. A must play. Diabolically immortal lol

Madden NFL 21 is the clearest example yet of how unwieldy the series has become, so your en-joyment will vary depending on which modes best suit your play style. For me, that comes from seeing my virtual 49ers hoist the Vince Lombardi Trophy at the end of the season, so anything else on top of that is just a bonus.

Madden NFL 21 is a strange beast. It is the same fun football experience that millions of players have come to love, yet I still expected a little more from it. While it features refined gameplay and fun game modes, its lackluster story mode and plethora of graphical glitches don’t reflect what a game releasing this year should look like. The online modes will keep you playing through various simulation and customizable options, but most of this is just more of the same in comparison to what has already been delivered. If you’re a seasoned Madden fan looking for your yearly fix of football goodness, I doubt Madden NFL 21 will disappoint you, but that doesn’t mean it’s a flawless experience.

With far more technical issues than normal and large chunks of recycled content, Madden NFL 21 feels more like an update than a brand-new game.

Despite the fact that Madden NFL 21 features arguably the best core gameplay the series has ever seen and the introduction of a fun new mode in The Yard, the continued neglect shown to classic Franchise mode, lack of innovation across the board, and technical issues leave this gridiron mismatch coming up short.

Although Madden 21 is not as good as we expected, as a video game updated with real-world data, it can still reach several points. Especially some updates on the new game platform have made the game more playable as a whole. Many high-rated players are launched every week. One thing that is not good is that the Madden 21 Coins I get in the game is not enough for me to use it in the game, so I have to buy Madden 21 Coins on a third-party platform. I bought Madden 21 Coins from U4GM recommended by my friend.I don’t know if the account is dangerous.

The game is decent, but there are so many bugs and glitches because EA was procrastinating and decided to fix the bugs through updates throughout the game, which is why everyone hates it. I get it's hard to make a new game every year, but it could've been better than this. Players warp sometimes, most commonly on the offensive line, and blocking logic is terrible in this game. There's also this fumble bug, where the players are grunting and the ball keeps rolling on the ground and no one can pick it up. Also, we should have more of a fair chance to chance to catch the ball in the air in 50/50 scenarios. The game isn't close to simulation just yet and EA has a lot to improve. The good is gameplay is a lot more balanced than Madden 20, The Yard is super fun, and Face of the Franchise is a pretty cool story mode you could play.

This game is broken. It **** because I actually noticed some improvements from previous titles. The gameplay feels just a little bit smoother than I remember. So I was pretty excited when I started playing. But then there's a ton a of bugs, the franchise mode is completely broken, and the slow-sim function causes the game to completely crash every time. All of these things simply ruined the game for me and pretty quickly it was uninstalled from my console. Overall score: 4/10

This is the worst madden I’ve ever played, and I’ve been playing since the early 2000s. It’s buggy, the gameplay is bad, and the matchmaking always puts you against sweaties. It’s purely not very fun and clearly EA (unsurprisingly) only cares about people buying packs. Poorly done. Shameful, really.
