Ahead of the August 2 release, gamers are beginning to get to see first-hand Madden 20 gameplay footage as they test things out with the beta. In a recent video, one gamer has provided a look at several players in action and unleashing their X-Factor Abilities. These are special arcade-like skills or talents a player can use once they accomplish certain in-game milestones. Among the featured players in the footage are the Raiders’ Antonio Brown, Jaguars’ Jalen Ramsey, and Saints’ Drew Brees, among others.
Madden 20 gameplay video with Superstar X-Factor Abilities
The video below was recorded by YouTuber Cookieboy17. It provides over 15 minutes of Madden 20 gameplay footage including a number of superstar players’ Superstar X-Factor and Star Abilities. The Dallas Cowboys’ Ezekiel Elliott is among the featured stars, showing off his special rushing skills and abilities.
The Cowboys’ running back brings a “First One Free” Superstar X-Factor to the new game. It’s based on his ability to elude defenders with his skilled running moves. Once Zeke gets into the zone, he’s got an increased ability to fake out defenders with a juke, spin, or hurdle move. Zeke’s Star Abilities include an Arm Bar (more powerful stiff arm animations) and Inside Zone Guru (receive better blocking on inside zone plays).
The video above features a number of star players in Madden 20 and their special Superstar X-Factor Abilities. It also shows off their Star Abilities. Some of the other players revealed in the video include the Saints’ Drew Brees and Alvin Kamara, Eagles Zach Ertz, Jaguars’ Jalen Ramsay, and the Patriots’ Tom Brady.
Of those mentioned, Tom Brady has an extensive list of special in-game abilities. Check out part of the screenshot from Madden 20 below.
More Madden 20 footage includes Beckham Jr., Antonio Brown
In another Madden 20 gameplay video, YouTuber AntoDaBoss indicates he flew out to EA in California and was able to record the first-hand game footage. It includes Odell Beckham Jr., who was among some of the recent Madden 20 screenshots we reported on.
Beckham’s Superstar X-Factor is the Rac ‘Em Up. That allows him to get in the zone and have an increased success of RAC receptions. To get into that zone, Beckham needs to make 20+ yard receptions and not miss catches. In addition, we see Beckham Jr’s Star Abilities. Those are Jukebox (faster juke animations on ball carrying) and Grab-N-Go (ability to shift momentum, change direction, and turn the corner without sacrificing speed).
Also featured in the video (below) are the Raiders’ new star receiver Antonio Brown. Gamers can catch a glimpse of just how impressive he could be on Oakland using his Superstar X-Factor Abilities.
The latest videos give gamers a good idea of what will be available in Madden 20. Some people are excited about the new game’s release based on just this potential feature set. Others are still demanding other gameplay fixes rather than introducing this new concept. It looks great ahead of it’s early August release so far.
We’re likely to see more of these videos emerging based on the Madden 20 beta codes that have given gamers a chance to try things. Still, the majority of gamers and overall gameplay will end up telling the full story.
