Madden NFL 25 for the Xbox One was released on 2013-11-19 and is largely identical to the initial platforms. This version uses a new Ignite engine instead of the Infinity Engine 2 engine, which results in some visual enhancements such as smoother player interactions, more detailed grass, wear and tear of the field, more detailed jerseys and stadium textures, improved clothes physics, interactive 3D crowds that respond to the game's action.
The gameplay has some changes, for instance introducing running momentum for a more realistic simulation. Players can no longer sharply cut and turn, but need time to build speed, shift weight and change direction. The additional processing power is used to make offensive and defensive lines more distinct by crunching the player statistics, visible in the physics and AI through decision making and blocking interactions.
The game modes of the original version are present, including Ultimate Team, which transfers over from PS3 to Xbox One when upgrading. Specific for the Xbox One version is the Smartglass companion app called CouchGlass, which can be used to call plays on defense and analyze the opponent's offense as a mini defensive coordinator.
