Madden NFL 18 Features New Target Passing, Coverage Assignments & More
 

Amazon has revealed some of the Madden NFL 18 features, as we get closer to an official announcement from EA Sports. Not only does it look like we will see new target passing, but it also mentions coverage assignments. Maybe we can finally assign the best corner vs. best receiver? EA is also giving users different play styles, ranging from Arcade, Simulation and Competitive.

Amazon also notes, Madden NFL 18 releases on August 25 for the Standard Edition ($59.99), but fans that pre-order the Madden NFL 18 G.O.A.T. Edition ($79.99), can get the game 3 days earlier, on August 22.

More details should be released soon.

Sounds very good so far as back of box features. Would've hoped for a "featuring new revamped franchise mode" as back of box but it doesn't mean it hasn't been done, just not a big ticket item. :)

I wonder if the G.O.A.T. Edition will have a different cover athlete?

I like the sound of target passing, will be interested to see what it ends up being. Coverage assignments and coach adjustments sound promising as well.

Really excited about the options for play style! Given that blurb about the Frostbite engine and "the spectacle of NFL game day", I wonder if stadiums and jumbotrons got updates this year.
