NFL fans are now patiently waiting for the release of Madden 24, soaking up any official news that comes their way regarding the new title.
If you're an Xbox gamer, you'll want to know what the game has to offer on the next-generation console, the Xbox Series X|S.
Well, we're here to help. Find out everything you need to know below.
Release Date
EA has not yet confirmed the official release date for Madden 24.
Judging from the releases of recent editions of the game, we expect Madden 24 to hit the shelves in mid-August, perhaps on Friday, August 18.
The Xbox Series X|S version will be available at launch.
Price
The price for Madden 24 on the Xbox Series X|S has not yet been confirmed.
However, we have a pretty good idea of how much it will cost judging from last year's pricing.
Madden 23 on the Xbox Series X|S was priced at £69.99 at launch.
You can expect the same price tag to be put on this year's version of the game.
Madden 24 on Xbox Series X|S
Madden 24 will be optimised for Xbox Seris X|S.
This means that you can expect the game to showcase unparalleled load times and heightened visuals.
Games that have been optimised for Xbox Series X|S use the full power of the new consoles to deliver higher, steadier framerates at up to 120FPS while playing.
The Xbox Velocity Architecture combines a custom SSD and integrated software to greatly decrease load times both in and out of games, meaning you spend more time playing and less time waiting.
Will Madden 24 have cross-play?
The short answer is that we don't know yet.
Whilst cross-play was not available on Madden 23, there is optimism among the NFL community that the next title in the series will include the feature.
EA implemented cross-play for the latest FIFA game and with fans crying out for it to be added to Madden 24, we could see their prayers answered.
Ahead of the implementation of cross-play into FIFA, EA carried out a large-scale testing period, so we can expect to hear news of the same with Madden, should the feature be added.
