Madden NFL 25 Title Update (September 25) patch notes: Custom audibles and more

EA Sports has released a new patch for Madden NFL 25 on all available platforms, and it brings some much-requested changes.

After more than a month since the game’s launch, you’ll be able to use custom audibles. Earlier this month, we had seen the addition of the same feature on College Football 25. But it’s not only about audibles, as the latest patch introduces several changes to the gameplay as well.

Madden NFL 25 Title Update (September 25) Gameplay changes

• Introducing the ability to Save Custom Audibles across all modes.
• Tuning to increase the chances of AI controlled defenders attempting interceptions rather than swats on catchable passes.
• Tuning to make AI controlled WRs play more aggressively to the catch point when targeted.
• Tuning to improve WR’s feet staying in bounds on a catchable pass near the sideline.
• Fixed an issue where AI-controlled QBs would check the ball down to a receiver coming out of the backfield too frequently when they were not under pressure. 
• Fixed an issue where AI-controlled QBs were considering receivers open on Curl routes when they were covered resulting in too many interceptions being thrown.
• Fixed an issue preventing defensive backs from matching press animations when running the Cover 1 Robber Press defensive play against streak, curl, and inside-release dig routes.
• Fixed an issue causing the QB to keep the ball on a run play when using multiple preplay adjustments at the same time.
• Fixed an issue preventing pass blockers from handing off pass rushers to other blockers vs defensive line crash inside.
• Fixed a rare issue causing the ball to warp through a defender’s body when attempting to make an interception.
• Fixed a rare issue sometimes causing a tackler to freeze after a hit-stick vs. a ball carrier.
• Tuning to improve the preservation momentum in physics-based tackles.
• Tuning to improve collision on dive tackles that make contact with the ball carrier’s upper leg.
• Tuning to improve player-falls on collisions between ball carriers and defenders.

Madden NFL 25 Title Update (September 25) Audio changes

• Added new commentary from Brock Huard, Kate Scott, and Mike Tirico.

• Fixed an issue where commentary would mention a missed PAT for every subsequent kickoff by that same kicker.
• Fixed an issue where commentary would not be interrupted by a successful 2-point conversion.
• Fixed an issue where commentary would incorrectly mention how the previous drive concluded coming out of super sim.
• Fixed an issue where incorrect commentary would be heard for a single season receiving touchdowns record.
• Fixed an issue where commentary would incorrectly reference the score differential at the end of a game.
• Fixed an issue where MADDEN theme song would continue to play after selecting Resume Activity on the PlayStation 5 home screen.
