Annual offerings from sports games are typically consistent when it comes to quality and content. Incremental changes come every few years, but for the most part, games like NBA 2K\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0FIFA<\/em> typically only have things like roster changes and minor differences. The same usually goes for Madden NFL<\/em><\/strong> games, although 2021’s entry may be a very different story. At first the reviews from media outlets weren’t entirely scathing, but it was the user reviews that shed a light on a serious problem with Madden<\/em>‘s latest entry.<\/p>\n

Granted\u00a0Madden NFL 21<\/em><\/a> is coming on the heels of a new console generation so there won’t be many major improvements, but that’s no excuse for the game’s current state. For a last hurrah on PS4\/Xbox One, the franchise isn’t looking great moving into the next generation. Fan scores are tanking the game’s Metacritic average to one of the lowest in the site’s history, and there’s no signs of that score improving any time soon. There’s an upcoming patch on the way, but the damage may have already been done for\u00a0Madden 21<\/em>.<\/p>\n
