Features[]

Madden NFL 17 features made balls big and small!, defensive, and special teams systems, including new mechanics and authentic AI. New ball carrier special moves are now spread out across all the different player types in the NFL. Big backs have better trucks and stiff arms, while smaller backs have better jukes and spins, giving players more creative control. For new Madden players, special move prompts recommend actions that can breakdown your opponent and become a better Madden player. while improved Zone Coverage balances out the passing game. The game also includes an improved Special Teams system providing more options to players, including the ability to "ice" the kicker.

Tackle Battles are a new in-game mechanic that allows players to break free for extra yardage by completing prompts.

A new defensive AI to date delivers authentic "gap play" across the field. Grounded in current NFL strategies, all-new "gap play" puts defenders in a position to stop the run from a variety of angles.

Franchise Mode has added features including practice squad, full-player editing, and in-game ticker to stay updated with other teams across your league. A new Game Planning system allows the player to pick the right drills to prepare for specific teams. A new Moments feature allows players to jump to game-defining players, drives, and situations for easing sharing.
