EA Sports has released the latest title update for Madden NFL 20 and it is now available for download on Xbox One, PS4 and also the PC.

The new offensive lineman abilities should bring about new strategies and Madden players who figure out the best ways to use these new Superstar abilities with their O-lineman will have the early advantage. To go with these new abilities is a brand new gameplay feature in the form of a pre-play mechanic.Madden 20 update 1.10

Madden fans have probably noticed the new ‘pass block double team mechanic’ on their pre-play passing adjustments menu. The new mechanic takes the place of the ‘pinch’ adjustment, which allowed users to adjust their pass blocking, or run blocking, to crash down to the inside and block the middle of the defensive line and linebackers after a play starts.

Check out the details and notes from the EA site below:

New Pre-Play Mechanic: Pass Block Double Team mechanic added to Pass Blocking Adjustments, replacing the Pinch adjustment. 

  • How it works: In the Pass Blocking adjustments pre-play menu, you can now target a defender aligned on the line of scrimmage for a pass-block double team. You can do this by opening the Pass Protection menu with R1/RB, and selecting the bottom option: ‘Double Team’ (this new mechanic is replacing the Pinch Adjustment, which has been removed globally). Once in this state, you’ll be shown a ‘D2’ indicator that you can move around with the LS, and then lock in your double team target by pressing A/X. While this can be bluffed on running plays and play-action, it will only assign a double team on dropback passing plays.

Madden 20 update 1.10 has a long list of tuning fixes and gameplay updates plus new features that you can read all about on the Madden 20 site. Check back regularly with Madden School for all of the latest news and developments from around the world of Madden 20.
