Madden 25 Franchise Mode Features Highlights
NFL Draft
“Your authentic Draft Night experience starts when Roger Goodell takes the stage. The draft environment is dynamic, with the Draft Board updating in real-time. After selections are made, you’ll witness the iconic moment of your draft pick walking across the stage, holding up their new jersey or receiving the life-changing call from home.”
Prospect Hub
“To reduce friction in the scouting and drafting process, we’ve completely redesigned the prospect hub in Madden NFL 25. Previously, in order to see a prospect’s athletic grades or physical measurables, you would have to go all the way into the player card. This year, we’ve brought all prospect information forward into a more familiar spreadsheet format…”

The presentation has been overhauled in both Superstar mode and Franchise mode. The way the Lombardi Trophy is presented will change depending on the game’s outcome and scenario.
