One of the most exciting parts about Franchise Mode in Madden 25 is the ability to relocate your organization. While the fans might not be too happy about it, you can pick and choose a new city and team name for your franchise as the team’s owner. In Madden 25, there are dozens of choices for your new city, but each option comes with a different market size and personality, making it difficult to pick which team to relocate.
The market size of the new city comes with different sets of challenges. If you move to a larger market, you have access to some additional capital, but you also have a greater responsibility to meet fans’ demands. On the other hand, a smaller market team comes with the same challenges, but flipped. Then, the city’s personality plays a factor in determining how vocal they are about the team’s performance.
While you can eventually make the choice you feel is right for your franchise in Madden 25, you’ll benefit from seeing every relocation city all laid out.
All Relocation Cities In Madden 25
You can relocate a franchise to over two dozen possible cities in Madden 25. Each one comes with a set market size and personality that won’t change and is based on the city and its football history. Naturally, you might have a preference in where you want to relocate, but if that city doesn’t have the right market size or personality, it’s likely not the best overall choice.

You can see every possible relocation city and its market size and personality in Madden 25 below:
City | Market Size | Personality |
---|---|---|
St. Louis | Small | Laid Back |
Virginia Beach | Decent | Laid Back |
Dublin | Decent | Laid Back |
Anchorage | Small | Laid Back |
Vancouver | Average | Laid Back |
Sacramento | Decent | Laid Back |
Sam Diego | Large | Laid Back |
Mexico City | Huge | Hardcore |
Buenos Aires | Huge | Hardcore |
Omaha | Decent | Hardcore |

Houston | Huge | Loyal |
San Antonio | Large | Loyal |
San Juan | Small | Loyal |
Toronto | Huge | Loyal |
Oklahoma City | Average | Loyal |
London | Huge | Loyal |
Tokyo | Huge | Loyal |
Salt Lake City | Small | Loyal |
Albuquerque | Average | Loyal |

Rio De Janeiro | Huge | Hardcore |
Austin | Large | Front Runner |
Orlando | Decent | Front Runner |
Columbus | Large | Front Runner |
Montreal | Large | Front Runner |
Paris | Large | Front Runner |
Oakland | Decent | Front Runner |
As you can see, there are five possible market sizes and four possible personalities for all relocation cities. The best possible combination is “Huge, Loyal,” as those are the top two options in both categories and give you the strongest starting point for a franchise in a new city. However, having a huge market size and a ravenously loyal fan base also comes with a lot of pressure to win, so it might not be for those looking to start with a total rebuild, or you should consider the best teams in Franchise Mode.
All Relocation Teams And Uniforms In Madden 25
Now that we have covered the relocation cities in Madden 25, it’s time to review the possible team names and uniform colors that you can choose whenever you decide to move your franchise.
Every relocation team comes with a default set of colors, but you can change those if you want. You can’t come up with an entirely new team name, though, as there are simply too many… graphic names to filter out.

Whenever you select a new team name and colors for that team, you can see a meter called “Fan Interest.” This tells you the excitement level of your new fan base surrounding the name and colors you’ve chosen. While this doesn’t matter a ton, it can affect your home attendance and overall revenue in Franchise Mode, as fans are more likely to spend money on a team name and colors they enjoy rather than one they don’t.
Usually, fans are more interested in a team name that matches up with the city you’re relocating to in Madden 25. For example, picking the San Antonio Desparados makes much more sense than the Buenos Aires Wizards.
However, in the end, the choice is ultimately up to you and whatever you think works best. After all, you’re the franchise owner, so choose the city, name, and colors you’ll be happiest with, and the fans will learn to live with it.
