Bleacher Report has posted a new Madden NFL 25 video featuring various receivers playing for their new team. These players include the following.

• Mike Wallace (Miami Dolphins)
• Greg Jennings (Minnesota Vikings)
• Wes Welker (Denver Broncos)
• Anquan Boldin (San Francisco 49ers)
• Percy Harvin (Seattle Seahawks)

The video showcases a few new moves and animations as well. Madden NFL 25 hits store shelves on August 28th for Xbox 360 and PS3. We'll hear more about the release date for next-gen Madden, when the release date has been announced for those consoles.

those niners pants look to be pretty golden right there.

I hope they can get rid of that "stiffness" of the players during transitions for the Next Gen versions.

Seems like whenever a player transitions to another animation, they "tighten up" and have an odd stiffness in their motions. A lot of the sprinting of the WRs in the video shows signs of it. But I assume that's still current gen limitations.

These guys need to "loosen up" more in Next Gen.

Lol its gonna be next gen or nothing for me, hope its good.

I know this is a small thing but I hope they can get the colors corrected for next gen. Ive been asking for the 49ers helmets to be a darker gold for years now. I guess its not as simple as editing the color.

Need more catch animations, not every receiver catches the ball perfectly with their hands every time! Sometimes they let the ball come near their chest and stomach area and sometimes they bobble the ball.

Exactly. A majority of the animations captured for Madden just don't look like professional athletes when they are transitioned into the game. They have got to do better next gen. Things have just got to look more natural. Even the best receivers in history don't always catch the ball strictly with their hands. Just baffles my mind how they bragged about capturing all these new catch animations and a majority of them still don't look natural.

Every single one of those receivers ran routes the exact same way. Every elite receiver in madden plays exactly the same. Never mind the fact that Wallace is more of a burner and deep threat and welker is a possession slot receiver. They may as well be the same person.
