Madden NFL 24 Gets Fatigue Tuning, Final X-Factor Update and Season 5

A new Madden NFL 24 patch arrived today featuring a fatigue tuning update, the final X-Factor update and Season 5 for Ultimate Team players. CeeDee Lamb, Josh Allen, Kyle Hamilton, Matt Milano and Amon-Ra St. Brown received X-Factors. See the full list of updates and changes here.

• Fatigue Tuning Update – We have now reverted the Fatigue changes where defenders would get a severe fatigue penalty when pass rushing and engaging in a block with a blocker that was significantly bigger than the defender.

DEV NOTE – Though the concept of this new fatigue penalty was something that was correct in premise, the application resulted in too many undesired artifacts that hindered the end user’s playing experience. We do plan to revisit this in the future and possibly implement a more comprehensive version in an upcoming title.

Season 5 brings in a new Field Pass packed with fresh rewards and player items to unlock. Among them are notable names like Derrick Henry, T.J. Watt, Andrew Whitworth, Keyshawn Johnson and Patrick Peterson. For more details on Season 5, check out the official blog.
