EA Sports has released an exciting new trailer for the upcoming “Madden NFL 25” game, featuring San Francisco 49ers star Christian McCaffrey on the cover. The trailer showcases the game’s new “BOOM Tech,” a physics-based system that gives players more control, especially in tackling and ball carrying.
The innovative technology takes into account various factors such as timing, momentum, weight, speed, strength, and player ratings to create realistic and explosive physical outcomes during 1-on-1 ball carrier impacts. This means that players will experience a wider variety of authentic outcomes when tackling or using the hit stick in the game.
In addition to the new physics system, running backs in the game will benefit from the “Balance and Recovery System,” which allows them to maintain their footing based on the quality of the tackle attempt and the skill level of the ball carrier. This feature provides players with more flexibility and control during gameplay.
One surprise appearance in the trailer is new Steelers quarterback Justin Fields, who is shown returning a kickoff in the game. While there has been speculation about Fields potentially returning kicks in real life, the player himself has stated that he is not focused on that aspect of the game. However, it seems like Madden NFL 25 has other plans for him.
Fans can look forward to getting their hands on the game when it becomes available on Aug. 16. The combination of the new physics system, the Balance and Recovery System, and the appearance of exciting players like Justin Fields makes this installment of Madden NFL a must-play for football enthusiasts.
