Madden NFL 20 Reviews
As a sports game, Madden NFL 20 isn't necessarily a bad game. The gameplay flows at a good pace and playing basic one-on-one matchups with your friends is just as fun as ever. It's really the constant repetitiveness that hurts Madden.
EA Sports is back with Madden NFL 20, and additions like QB1 and the X-Factor perks create new opportunities for gamers to take control of their games.
Madden NFL 20 is a solid entry with plenty of new additions.
Madden NFL 20 have improved almost in every aspect. The core gameplay is still very good and changelling, maybe even too much.

Madden NFL 20 has great improvements and the introduction of new features that more than justify this new installment of the series. Ultimate Team continues to be one of the best of its kind and the inclusion of X-Factors makes the matches better than never.

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.
If your an (American) Football fan and don’t own Madden 20, why not? This game is perfect to go hand in hand while the season starts and to get over the post-Super Bowl blues. There’s a lot of fun to be had, hard tackles to be made and way too many hail mary’s too. If you on the fence about it and not convinced, grab an EA or OPrigin access for a month, download it and play it, you really won’t regret it as its the best football you are going to get this year. I give this the Thumb Culture Platinum Award.
Madden games on both the PS4 and Xbox One have been a boring digital microtransaction slog. There is more information than ever on the screen and depending on your preference it can either be informative or overwhelming.
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.
Overall, Madden 20 is one of the better Madden games I have played in the last few years. The gameplay feels better and the story mode is a nice touch to a sports game. It gives it something that you can replay to try and get different outcomes from your combine and championship game. The Superstar Edition that we reviewed is available for $79.99 USD and the standard game is $59.99 USD. It is available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. If you get the game I would suggest trying the Face of the Franchise mode first.
Madden NFL 20 is the most beautiful, exciting and simply the best part of the series I have ever played. No revolution, but a very good evolution with many small improvements that will be great fun for football fans.
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 NFL 20 has reached an additional milestone thanks to the addition of significant new features. It remains the best American football experience

Overall the game is great to play with some improvements on last year's iteration.
Madden 20's new story mode is a disappointment, but the on-field action is better than it's ever been.
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.
The football is fun – helped by gameplay improvements and the X-Factor and superstar abilities. Unfortunately, the limited nature and lack of progress in the franchise and career modes is very clear
Madden NFL 20 maintains important elements of previous deliveries, but it is still an experience of contrasts with successes and specific errors that may change in the future. Despite this, it is a good football game that will keep fans entertained throughout the season.

Bluntly put, I found Madden NFL 20 to be a fairly vanilla entry in the franchise.
Size and speed always carry the day, but Madden gives you new ways to use them
