Madden NFL 24 has been released for both Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. EA Sports has announced some new features for the official football simulation.

However, do disparities truly exist between the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S editions? Let's elaborate on that! Considering an upgrade to the next-gen experience for Madden NFL 24 might indeed prove beneficial...

Madden NFL 24: Comparison Of The Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S

The major difference lies within the consoles themselves. The Xbox One lacks the advanced capabilities found in the Series X|S, which leverages entirely different technologies. This disparity is directly evident in the game experience.

However, there is also a price gap between the consoles. If you only play a few hours each month, investing in a Xbox Series X|S may not be necessary. The Series X|S is the much better console, though, but we don't need to tell you that, I guess.

We'll get straight to the point: We have yet to see a game that has such a big difference between the console generations as Madden NFL 24.

EVERY new feature is only available for the Next-Gen.

Even simple updates like for the franchise mode are not available for the Xbox One. But see for yourself...

Now, let's delve into the ultimate Madden NFL 24 comparison between the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S:

The prices for consoles are subject to change and can vary among different providers.

But the $499 price tag for an Xbox Series X doesn't appear to be overpriced, especially considering the advanced features it offers. And the Series S is even more budget-friendly.

So, which version is better? Our answer is clear: the Series X|S. Despite the slightly higher cost of both the game and console, the enhanced gameplay and faster loading times make it a worthwhile investment. Now, let's delve into a detailed comparison of the versions.

Madden NFL 24 On Xbox One: Every New Feature Will Be Missing

Madden NFL 24 will be available for the Xbox One, and you can pre-order both the Standard or Deluxe Edition. However, both the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S have the same price tag.

But the Madden NFL 24 Xbox One version is definitely not worth it! Don't buy the One version if you plan on upgrading to the Series X|S at any time. The One version has absolutely nothing to offer, except maybe the new roster, ratings, and kits.

But the good thing is that you can upgrade the Xbox One version to the Series X|S version for free without losing your save. This is also the reason why both games have the same price.

Madden NFL 24 On Xbox Series X|S: All New Features

Madden NFL 24 is a completely new game on the Series X|S. The next-gen version has all new features, such as:

  • Newest iteration of FieldSENSE
  • Hit Everything 2.0
  • Skill-Based Passing 2.0
  • Sapien Technology
  • Crossplay (PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PC)
  • Superstar League
  • Superstar Showdown
  • Franchise Updates

In summary, if you want to buy Madden NFL 24, you should also own an Xbox Series X|S. Otherwise, the purchase makes no sense at all.
