Catch Your Opponent Off-Guard with
Game Changers featured in Madden NFL Arcade
Game Changers featured in Madden NFL Arcade
Madden NFL Arcade delivers an all new 5-on-5 gridiron experience, complete with 13 action-packed Game Changers. Each player will have the chance to receive a Game Changer before every play. They can choose to use their awarded Game Changer immediately or save it for a crucial play. Either way, every Game Changer has the ability to impact a play and change the course of the game.
Freeze a single player on your opponent’s team, confuse the defense by passing 3 footballs instead of 1, or pick up the pace of the play with lightning speed. Game Changers ensure that no 2 plays are the same in Madden NFL Arcade!
Entourage - Bring in the reinforcements as Entourage sends the rest of your lineman into the game to help out for a play.
Triple Threat - Disguise which receiver you’re throwing the ball by sending out two other decoys with the Power Ball game changer.
Bonus Play - Give yourself an additional down to help get in the end zone and earn some much deserved points with Bonus Play.
Make it, Take it - If you’re good enough to score when you trigger Make It, Take It, the ball is yours to keep on the next possession.
Turbo – The Turbo game changer will send players in fast forward by giving them an extra speed burst.
Molasses – Game too fast for you? Use Molasses to take down the action on the field to a less frantic pace.
Fumbilitis – Turn your opponent’s into butter fingers as they’ll have a difficult time holding on to the ball with Fumbilitis.
It’s Alive – Make any pass a scramble for the ball as its Alive will turn any incomplete pass into a live ball.
Frostbite - Put the freeze on one opposing player from moving by using the game changer Frostbite.
Fast Pass - Fast Pass gives the power to a QB to throw the ultimate bulleted pass.
Flying Blind - Sabotage your opponent by using Flying Blind to turn off their passing icons.
Flip Flop – Jealous of your opponents score? Flip Flop will nicely borrow the score and never give it back.
Dud – Hey, they can’t all be winners.
