Gamers can also take part in an Easter Egg Hunt

Mar 30, 2015 21:24 GMT  ·  By

Video game developer EA Sports is announcing that it is introducing a new feature to the Ultimate Team mode in Madden NFL 15, called NFL Movers, which is designed to reflect the big free agent moves that have taken place in the real-life National Football League in the past few weeks.

The announcement explains that updated stats and new team colors will be used for all the players involved and they will be added weekly in packs for gamers to buy.

At the moment, players can get access to the following stars using the NFL Movers element of Madden NFL 15 Ultimate Team:

- Andre Johnson of the Indianapolis Colts - who offers a lot of quality for the wide receiver position after the team lost Reggie Wayne;

- Rodney Hudson from the Oakland Raiders - a choice that can improve the running game of his new team;

- Kendrick Lewis of the Baltimore Ravens - an addition which can add speed to the defensive;

- Harry Douglas from the Tennesee Titans - a solid choice for a team aiming to improve its passing game;

- Jabaal Sheard of the New England Patriots - both a pass rusher and a run stopper.

Madden NFL 15 wants to keep Ultimate Team engaging for a long time

The game no longer benefits from the excitement that live games generate among fans, who would often run the sim just in order to relive a match or to try and re-write its result.

Despite this, Ultimate Team remains very popular for those who have Madden NFL 15, and the fact that new versions of players they already know are offered certainly contributes to the long-term appeal.

Currently, EA Sports is also running an Easter Egg Hunt for the game, with special content offered to those who log in for the rest of the week.

The company is also working on Madden NFL 16, but it has not offered any sort of information on the kind of changes and new ideas that it will add, although it seems that there are some big tweaks to how faces are scanned.
