Madden NFL 24 Title Update 9 Revealed With Patch Notes

Madden NFL 24 Title Update 9 brings a massive postseason shuffle to X-Factors.

By Ricky Frech

The NFL season might be over, but the developers at Electronic Arts continue to churn out updates for Madden NFL 24. While most of the team is likely working hard on the next game in the long-running franchise, Title Update 9 was revealed earlier today. It gives fans a re-shuffling of X-Factors and brings Season 5 to Ultimate Team. With Madden NFL 25 likely to be revealed in the next few months, this might be the last major update we see, especially when it comes to X-Factors. Interestingly, no Kansas City Chiefs players were given new X-Factors with this update, despite winning the Super Bowl (as predicted by Madden NFL 24).

Instead, players have two linebackers hopping into the fray with Josh Allen (Jacksonville Jaguars) and Matt Milano (Buffalo Bills). Joining those two are CeeDee Lamb (Dallas Cowboys), Kyle Hamilton (Baltimore Ravens), and Amon-Ra St. Brown (Detroit Lions). Outside of the shuffling of X-Factors, Title Update 9 includes a substantial tuning update for the fatigue system. EA has reverted a previous change to the fatigue system, and players should now feel like their pass rushers won't be as tired as they were before the update. Madden NFL 24 is also bringing Season 5 to Ultimate Team with this update, which includes a new Field Pass featuring Derrick Henry as the ultimate reward.

Below, you'll find the full patch notes for Title Update 9. Madden NFL 24 is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC platforms.

GAMEPLAY

  • 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.

MADDEN ULTIMATE TEAM

SUPERSTAR MODE
