With a little more than a month until the launch of Madden NFL 25, it’s almost time to start stocking your Madden Ultimate Team.

But what about later this year when the new consoles launch? Will you have to start from scratch on Xbox One and PlayStation®4? Not at all. Rest assured, you’ll have a nice head start on your friends when next-gen consoles launch.

THIS IS MY TEAM

In the months between the launch of Madden NFL 25 on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 and next-gen consoles later this year, you’re bound to build up quite an Madden Ultimate Team. And after spending all that time getting your roster just right, it would be hard to start over. Luckily, you don’t have to! When you fire up Madden Ultimate Team on brand-new next-gen console, you’ll be able to make a one-time transfer of up to 1,100 items.

When you transfer your Madden Ultimate Team to Xbox One and PlayStation 4, you’ll get to bring over 100 active items (45 players, 55 additional items) and up to 1000 reserves*. Don’t worry about transferring over your best items and then leaving your current-gen team roster bone dry: all the items you transfer can still be used on Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3. Caveats being that once you transfer an item it can no longer be auctioned or traded, so make sure to take that into consideration before you make the call. Also, the carry-over will apply to those transferring Gen 3 to Gen 4 across PS3 to PS4 only and Xbox 360 to Xbox One ONLY.

And the good news doesn't stop there. Madden NFL 25 Anniversary Edition players who participate in this offer will also be granted six Madden Ultimate Team All Pro packs for use in their Madden Ultimate Team on next-gen consoles.*† On top of being able to transfer 1,100 of your best items, you’re also getting six packs chock full of the best stuff.

While everyone else is opening starter packs and taking on the first few Solo Challenges in the hopes of buffing up their team, you’ll be coming right out of the gates with a powerhouse and laying the smack down on anyone foolish enough to challenge you online. Win early, win often.

So when you pop in Madden NFL 25 on your Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 next month, take a little extra joy from the fact that you not only have the best game in franchise history, but that we are committed to easing the transition to Xbox One and PlayStation 4.

Madden NFL 25 will be available on Tuesday, August 27, for Xbox 360 and PS3, and fans can learn more at the Madden website. Pre-order today to receive exclusive Franchise Packs for your Connected Franchise and Madden Ultimate Team!

It would be better if dynasty transferred over from PS3 to PS4 since I don't play ultimate team. No mention of that though...

yeah that would be cool. Carrying over the franchise mode from PS3 to PS4 would be the only reason I would buy Madden 25 on the next gen console. Too many other games to hold me over until the release of The Show on PS4(Killzone, WatchDogs, DriveClub, and NBA 2K14)

Not too mention I'll still be playing the Show on PS3 and GTA V

I'll be getting both since I probably wont have to pay for either one of them. I don't really care about the stuff transferring over, but I really want to see what this new engine is about, and I know I can't wait until November to play Madden.
