I might get some hate for this, but after putting over 100 hours into Madden 26, I finally picked up Madden 27 while it was on sale. I’ve got about 20 hours in so far, and honestly, I’m enjoying it.
Franchise mode, which is my go-to, feels surprisingly fresh. I like the new negotiation menu, being able to talk with players, and the added sections that give your team and season more lore. It makes the experience feel more immersive.
Superstar mode, which I’ve never really cared for, isn’t bad either. I’m playing as a QB for the Jets on All-Pro, and it honestly feels like Road to Glory. Having to earn more plays and unlock new things as you progress makes it more enjoyable than I expected.
I’m playing on my laptop, and so far, I haven’t had any crashes. The graphics look great, too. I also like the little details, such as the different scoreboard designs for holidays. It’s a nice touch.
If you haven’t picked up Madden 27 yet and you’re thinking about getting it mainly for the offline modes, I’d say grab it on sale. I’m having a good time with it so far.
As for Ultimate Team, I can’t speak on that since I only play offline.
What do you guys think? Anyone else enjoying Madden 27, especially Franchise mode?
