    The March update for Madden NFL 22 is now available. This update features the much awaited - and debated - second update for Franchise Mode, Coach Adjustments and Coverage Depths added to Practice Mode, a Live Playbooks update, and more.

    The second live service update for Franchise Mode includes five new Scenarios: Trench Boost, QB Duel, Immovable Object, Under Siege, and QB Breakouts.

    In early December, Sports Gamers Online reported that sources had indicated to them that any future Franchise Mode updates were cancelled as portions of the Madden dev team had been shifted to work on EA SPORTS College Football. In turn, EA turned to IGN in releasing a statement that they were still committed to Franchise Mode and would be releasing two additional Franchise updates.

    Sports Gamers Online's Mike Straw is reporting that Madden NFL 22 will not be receiving any additional significant post-launch Franchise Mode improvements as a portion of the Madden team has been moved to work on EA SPORTS College Football.

    Straw is also reporting that a source close to the Madden NFL development team has stated devs are "stressed and frustrated" and that "It's not a good place right now." His sources have stated that they know this decision will not be received favorably by the Madden community, especially given how game executives have talked publicly over the last two years that Franchise Mode will be treated as a live service and receive improvements/features throughout the year. The two canceled updates were believed to include a full scouting tree as well as new scenarios.

    It is unknown how many team members shifted to EA SPORTS College Football and also why they were moved. For example, is it to shore up the game before the rumored 2023 launch or is the game behind the development curve?

    Credit to Sports Gamers Online for this story.

    UPDATE - EA has provided a statement to IGN: We do not like to comment on rumors or speculation; however, we are committed to continuing to improve Franchise as a part of our ongoing Madden NFL 22 live service and beyond. This includes two upcoming Franchise updates that we'll deliver in Madden NFL 22. We will have more details on the updates in the new year.

    SGO has also since responded: Myself and the rest of SGO will always stand by our original reporting. There’s no reason for us to not continue to do this moving forward. As an outlet started to help sports gamers improve and to bring them the latest on the games they love, if our reporting leads to positive outcomes for the gaming community, that makes it all worth it. ...

    Could EA SPORTS College Football be headed for a mobile version in addition to consoles? As first noted by GameRant's Oliver VanDervoort, it would appear so.

    Currently listed on Electronic Arts career search website are listings for a Mobile Software Engineer and a Technical Lead for College Football. It is unknown if this unannounced title would be a standalone mobile version of the game or a companion app for the console version or perhaps both. For example, Madden NFL has a standalone mobile game with Madden Mobile as well as a companion app.

    In an exclusive interview with Brian Jones of popculture.com, EA President of Music Steve Schnur gave some very early, but vague, information regarding the soundtrack for EA SPORTS College Football. Some excerpts:

    "I'm a hundred percent on it. I've already been all over it for a couple of months," Schnur told PopCulture. "I can tell you that it will be very different [from] Madden, but it's going to be so awesome because I have had an idea, a concept of what I imagined would be the most amazing college football musical experience. ... But when I pitched the executive producer on this idea, I don't think it took him three seconds to go, 'Go.' And so I can't give you details because I literally, I haven't recorded a note yet, but I can tell you that if we could meet next year, I promise you — I will put a hundred bucks down — you are going to say to me, 'That idea just kicks ass.'
