Madden NFL 24: Pros And Cons Of The Standard Edition

The profile of a Standard Edition buyer: If you play Madden NFL occasionally and prefer not to make a significant investment, then this version is perfect for you.

You don't mind receiving the game a few days after the public release, and you don't require any in-game extras. Instead, you would rather save some money (and resist the temptation to spend it on MUT Points).

You have the option to pre-order the version and receive minor bonuses, or purchase it from a store at a later date.

Standard Or Ultimate Edition – Which One Is better?

As a casual gamer, opting for the Standard Edition would be more suitable since the core game remains the same, and it comes at a lower price. You would only miss out on certain bonuses, which, of course, Madden enthusiasts may not want to pass up. Ultimately, your decision should depend on how much time you intend to invest in Madden NFL 24.

If you play the game for around 100 hours per year, the Standard Edition is more than sufficient. However, if you plan to dedicate more time to gaming, it may be worth digging a little deeper into your pockets and investing in the Deluxe Edition.
