Finish Up Face of the Franchise
Face of the Franchise in Madden 21 may be one of the worst received of its game modes this year, but the story mode is still a fun way to spend some hours.
You'll be able to play through the career of a player in whatever position you choose, rising through the ranks of high school, college, and eventually NFL football.

Take Things Backyard With The Yard
Backyard football games are some of the most popular in gaming history, but until Madden 21, it had been years since that gameplay was revisited.
Madden 21 added The Yard to help build on those fond memories.
The Yard is an entirely different gameplay experience with unique moves, positions, rules, scoring systems, and more.
If you're looking to shake things up in Madden 21, there's no better place to do it!
