Madden NFL 20 Reviews
Madden NFL 20 updates and adds some interesting attributes to its football structure. It polishes up the story mode and gives it focus while maintaining the entertainment value of the series steadily. It needed a bit more with regard to content, but what it has is still good.
When everything goes smoothly, Madden 20 is one of the best-playing football games of the generation. Things don't always go smoothly.
Just like skipping out on watching the Pro Bowl, you’re not missing out on all that much.
Madden NFL 20's Ultimate Team and Franchise modes are superb, but the career mode misses the mark.
Madden 20 boasts a new X-Factor system and story mode, but does it stand up next to previous titles?
Bluntly put, I found Madden NFL 20 to be a fairly vanilla entry in the franchise.
Madden NFL 20 remains solid from a fundamental perspective, and the addition of X-Factor abilities is a welcome change. However, the usual litany of bugs and a lackluster single-player story mode prevent this entry from taking home the Lombardi.
Madden NFL 20 has reached an additional milestone thanks to the addition of significant new features. It remains the best American football experience

Madden NFL 20 have improved almost in every aspect. The core gameplay is still very good and changelling, maybe even too much.

EA Sports Madden franchise finds itself stuck in cruise control, or dare I say resting on its laurels.
Madden NFL 20 manages to iron out some nagging issues, making gameplay better than it has ever been. Ultimate Team sees deep refinement, but online play needs some work. Madden NFL 20 feels like a game made for existing Madden fans.
Overall the game is great to play with some improvements on last year's iteration.
The greatest show on turf gets a bit more personality with Madden NFL 20’s new X-Factor abilities. While this headline addition only applies to the sport’s biggest superstars, it injects new life into the on-field action. The new QB1 campaign may have potential in the future, but in its current guise it’s a step back from the Longshot story explored in previous entries, while the fan-favourite Franchise mode continues to see neglect.
Madden NFL 20 is a solid entry with plenty of new additions.
Madden NFL 20 is a great American Football game, and whilst it's better than last year, some of the mainstay modes could do with an overhaul.
Madden 20 does very little in this year's game to impress, but it doesn't do anything that truly disappoints. What it offers is a competent and refined football experience with a stellar presentation and plenty of modes to play.
Madden 20 is back. As every summer, football fans have the opportunity of enjoying their favorite sport in a virtual way. In this case, EA brings us an iteration which has enough new additions to keep us playing for several hours. In the bad side, we will miss some important modes as Longhorn and more news in franchise mode.

Madden NFL 20 is the worst major sports league video game out there.
I'm having a lot of fun with Madden 20, and readily admit it is improved from last year's game, which I didn't hate. However, my fun is regularly curtailed by an inexplicable limitation in almost every mode. Madden 20 gets a lot more right than it gets wrong, but it still won't let itself be great.
Madden 20 provides another year's worth of well-crafted gridiron action. It's a shame to say goodbye to Devin Wade and the Longshot narrative, but QB1 does a decent enough - if short - job of framing your own rise to fame. The rest of the package is as slick and smooth as you'd hope. Should you upgrade? If you're an avid fan, you probably already have. For everyone else, both Madden 18 and 19 still play a fantastic game of football.
