For me, I think the logic improvements are going to be the biggest addition out of this update. Importantly, this update sees changes to CPU logic in drafting quarterbacks. Previously, teams would draft a QB one season only to draft another in the very next year. The game didn’t properly give those players time to develop, which caused teams to waste picks chasing generational quarterbacks. The new logic should better replicate real-world draft strategies. It might not sound huge, but for players looking for immersion, this is an important step.

Commissioners are also getting several new tools. These will help leagues out in all kinds of different ways. Whether it’s using league settings to ensure an even playing field or the ability to let players customize X-Factor skills, these are many of the tools players have been asking for.

Is it perfect?Absolutely not. However, Franchise mode is at least trending in the right direction. And, EA revealed today that the third update will introduce trade logic improvements and better options for tracking the history of your Franchise. Hopefully, they can continue this momentum intoMadden NFL 22.

Madden NFL 21is available now onPC,PS4,PS5,Xbox One, andXbox Series X.
