    Fortunately, the Stadia version of Madden NFL 21 plays great and looks fantastic. As is the norm now with the Stadia version of AAA games, it plays wonderfully and doesn't have any noticeable issues with lag or latency if your connection is good enough. Anytime you play Madden online kicking does suffer from minor latency issues, but that's the case across all versions of the game — not just Stadia. This year it's worse than usual so you should absolutely expect to miss a few field goals and extra points. They must have changed the net code for how kicking is handled or something because even on PS4 and PS5 I was having issues hitting kicks just right and those issues persist in the Stadia version.

It's more a tactical and graphical experience and therefore worth a try. I'm not grinding to the max to play against other players but I'm enjoying the single player story and a little bit of backyard-game. Expand

    Madden 21 is a recycled garbage land full of bugs. Noone is evil enough to be forced to play this trash, not even Hitler. Ea needs to be restructured.

Buggier and glitchier than all hell. This series has been on a serious decline for the last ten years. I didn't care too much about buying a new one every year when it was some solid gameplay, but the devs are so lazy and clearly don't care at all anymore. They just want to milk us fans. Thanks Obama!

    This game is the PS4/xbox 1 version of the game. Same game play issues as with all other consoles! It might look great but plays horribly!
