EA announced on August 5 that a new game mode will be in Madden 21. It's called "The Yard," a backyard-inspired game mode that will feature new in-game animations and wild gameplay throughout. a whole new framework.
In 'The Yard', players will be able to create their own avatar, customize it, and then compete in 6v6 football matches against the CPU in single player or offline co-op, or against other players in multiplayer action. online. Players can form teams of one, two or three players in The Yard, and once in the game players can perform a variety of tricks games, including behind-the-back throws and double passes, something that you would never see it in a real NFL game. But it's all part of a mode that EA claims to be a completely different experience than what you'll find in competition or in simulation.
“We wanted to create a new way for players to express themselves and play small-scale soccer in a completely new arcade-style experience for Madden,” Madden executive Seann Graddy said of the new game mode. Graddy added that in addition to the new 'arcade style' simulation experience, players of The Yard will be able to relive that backyard football experience they may have had before in a fun and relaxed setting. .
This new mode is not the first time that EA has attempted to reproduce the sport in a non-professional setting in its sports titles. The NHL franchise has added "CHEL World" to NHL 19, giving players the opportunity to play hockey in a relaxed pond hockey-themed setting. And last year, the FIFA team added the new 'VOLTA' mode to the franchise, a feature that revolved around the game of street football.
Players can start playing The Yard starting August 5 on the Madden 21 mobile app. But for those who don't play Madden on mobile phones or tablets, the game mode will be in Madden 21 when it launches on the 28th. August.
