    Concussion protection (Guardian) helmets are in. Here is Roschon Johnson, he wears one in real games.

      They finally added the In-Com-Plete chant in Denver. It's so nice to hear as a Broncos fan.

        The field changes based on the team's uniform.

        Only played one game so far with the Texans in their H-Town uniforms, and they had the H-Town field art and walls.

          I mentioned this a few Madden’s ago, and luckily, someone from the community had a solution. Da Bears “Fictional” Orange Pants have been included in M25 without having to dig them out in Custom Home/Away Creation/Edit Screen. It seems like they may have been taken out in the regular uniform selection menu and in the edit feature. From what I’ve seen so far, it’s limited to just the home pants and the away pants for Da Bears. In the regular uniform selection menu, you can mix and match all of available uniforms though.

            I heard the shout song play at Buffalo, not heard that before!

              Mr. Brightside will play at times as well, I'm not sure yet if there's a specific cue for it

                Is it the full version? They've played an abbreviated of it in previous games for the Kickoff after you score a TD

                  I don’t know if this is new, but played a SNF as the 49ers at home and in the pregame Joe Montana cranked the siren and George Kittle led the team out. Even as a Commanders fan, it got me hyped and couldn’t stop smiling.

                    In the beginning of games when the QB runs out they show different things. I’ve seen Last Years Stats, one with QB Age, Height and another one with different stats.

                    Huge QOL Presentation upgrade to me.

                    I always hated seeing ratings or stats with all zeros in early season. They must have redone it when they redid all the Themes. Love it.

                      I knocked Min qb McCarthy out in OT. TOO BAD. the Vikings backup came out and his pure white jersey stood out. Love the jerseys getting dirty this year. Hope they don't need nerf it like College.

                      Also, the New OT rule of each team getting a possession is in however, Minnesota punted on 4th down oops and I won without them attempting to get the 1st.

                        The Lambeau Leap is back. Now, how does Jaylen Waddle do his waddle ?

                          An old track from Madden '05 played. Man that took me BACK. I don't know the title of the song tho.

                          Other than that, it seems like RB's are more decisive this year...subtle cuts and jukes to avoid tackles whereas last year they seemed slower to react, especially in the open field.

                          I didn't play much CFB 25 so I'm assuming this is borrowed from there. Either way, it's welcomed and adds a fair amount to the visual realism.

                            The last game I bought was 23 and it used to drive me crazy how the intros were exactly the same for every game. Same warmup shots and the same clip of the QB talking to the head coach and running onto the field with the same stats!!!
                            Love stuff like this.


                            I don’t know if it’s a little thing, but there’s so much more variety in the stadium music between plays. Seems to be even more than CFB.
                            I heard stuff like Judas Priest and sure I even heard Symphony of Destruction by Megadeth, but clicked through it.

                              Some awesome things for the bills this year

                              the accurate ribbon and Jumbotrons animations are awesome

                              when selecting the bills in play now I’ve heard the shout song, train horn, first down knockout bell, let’s go Buffalo chant. Not sure if there are any more

                              were else would rather be during the team intro as well as seven nation army is flat out amazing.

                              also, Mr. Brightside plays at random times. Don’t think there is a specific cue.
