Madden NFL 17 - Xbox One

Unleash All New Moves

New ball carrier special moves are now spread out across all the different player types in the NFL. Big backs have better trucks and stiff arms, while smaller backs have better jukes and spins, giving you more creative control than ever. For players new to Madden, special move prompts recommend moves expanding your ball carrier toolset so you can breakdown your opponent and become a better Madden player.

Your Path to Daylight

New ball carrier path assist helps you anticipate where you are going further down field, improving field awareness and improving your ability to hit the hole.

The Play Isn't Over Until the Whistle Blows

Tackle battles add a new, fun in-game mechanic, allowing you try and break free for extra yardage.

Run / Pass Counters

Simplify play-calling on defense and force your opponents to stop being so one dimensional. Think you know what your opponent is going to do, but don’t know the defensive formation to stop it? Decide to defend the run or the pass, pick from a small number of recommended plays and let your defense do the rest.

New Gap Play

The most authentic defensive AI to date delivers authentic "gap play" across the field. Grounded in current NFL strategies, all-new "gap play" puts your defenders in a position to stop the run.

Game Changing Special Teams

Special Teams has entered a modern era in the NFL with changes to the PAT in the kicking game and creative trick plays. The new kick meter strives to match the challenge we now see in today’s kicking game, while the “ice the kicker“ mechanic allows you to put pressure on those late game winning field goal attempts. Additionally new elements of risk and reward through trick plays and blocked kicks can change the outcome of any game in one play.
