The Madden 20 February Title Update is now live. The update mainly focuses on the NFL Live Playbook and bug fixes. It improves stability and connectivity in the Franchise mode, and a “Route Runner” bug that stopped the player from reaching higher overall ratings has also been fixed. It’s nice to see that EA hasn’t abandoned Madden 20 just yet, and support it with constant updates.
The update size is small, only 2 GB big on Xbox One. You can read the complete patch notes below or on the official site.
