Madden NFL 21's New Features Were Shown Off During A Livestream

The first "deep dive" gameplay livestream for Madden NFL 21 was held today. EA Sports showed off the next-generation football game and detailed some of its new features during a broadcast that was held on June 25.

The event was broadcast on Twitch, and you can check out a replay below. You can also read the ridiculously in-depth "Gridiron Notes" here to get all the details on what's new in Madden 21.

During the event, the developers talked about Madden NFL 21's numerous new features such as more options for pass-rushers, better control of the ball while running, and improved open-field tackling, among other things. EA began to discuss these features earlier this week, but the livestream went into much greater depth and detail.

Madden NFL 21 launches on August 28 for PS4, Xbox One, and PC, but you can play early through the MVP Edition. Additionally, everyone who buys Madden NFL 21 on PS4 or Xbox One can redeem a free upgrade to PS5 or Xbox Series X until the release of Madden NFL 22 in 2021.
