Whilst these matches don’t last too long, they offer a nice step away from the simulation of other modes.
You can snap the ball to anyone, pass multiple times as long as you’re behind the Blitz line, and even punch and kick the ball to your fellow teammates. Each team gets three opportunities to score a touchdown. Taking place across various backyard environments, you play in 6v6 matches that focus more on scoring, removing many of the rules to ensure gameplay is more arcade-like than realistic. Perhaps the biggest addition to Madden NFL 21 is The Yard. Just like the Career Mode in FIFA, Franchise Mode has always been my favourite, but I’ve barely touched it this year. Visuals haven’t really been touched, neither have some of the biggest modes in the series. There is far too much in Madden NFL 21 that has been completely ignored, and it’s obvious from the moment you jump in.
#MADDEN NFL 21 THE YARD UPDATE#
Add a seasonal update and don’t charge for a full price game.
It would’ve been more beneficial to have EA do what Konami are doing with PES this year. This year, Madden just isn’t the same and, frankly… I’m pretty sad about it. Madden used to be a huge deal, especially in games media circles: it signified the start of the the big games being released in the run up to Christmas, and always had me excited. Madden NFL 21 is similar on the field, apart from some changes to how the defensive line works, and various modes have largely been ignored. With the current gen coming to a close, it feels like EA Sports has chosen to put out a Madden game that is far too similar to last year’s efforts.
