Power Ups lead by Sanders & Mayfield

Madden 21 Ultimate Team has finally released a new batch of Power Ups, and these seemingly innocuous cards have some truly amazing potential.

While most of the cards don't initially have the stats of some tops LTDs or MUT Heroes, it's in their upgrades that they shine.

All 15 new Power Ups available in MUT 21 can be pumped up with trianing points and, of course, powered up into some of the most devastating weapons in Ultimate Team.

You can find details on all 15 new MUT 21 Power Ups here.

MUT 21 has brought back an old favorite, and MUT Heroes is back in action as of March 5, 2021.

This is a promo that players don't want to miss out on, as there are 20 different players up for grabs that are boasting a 97 OVR.

DeAndre Hopkins and Aaron Jones led the charge and were among the first revealed, but there are over 40 cards that are worth adding to your Madden 21 Ultimate Team.

CLAIM IT: Rewards are out now for MUT players based on February wins

All you have to do in order to reap the rewards of Weekend League is play a set number of games each weekend on MUT 21, and the number of wins you rack up will help you get the best rewards.

You can still hop into the action now, and keep an eye out for the end of the month when the March Monthly Awards will drop for MUT 21 Weekend League, and likely be distributed a few days into April.

Ability Caps

The newest strategy to Madden 21 is all about Ability points, which in Ultimate Team means there is an Ability Cap!

ABILITY POINTS: Managing these will be crucial to creating the best lineup

Rather than having to choose who to assign Abilities to, you'll be able to break up the Abilities and assign more than three players on each side of the ball. To balance out, each Ability will cost points and you'll have an Ability Cap for how much you can spend across your lineup.

So you can stack loads of Abilities on one player, or you could give every receiver different ones and keep your opponent guessing.

X-Factors won't cost you any Ability Points though, so don't sweat those!
