See the first look at next-gen Madden on Xbox Series X

Gamers got their first look at a few next-gen releases coming later this year during the Xbox Series X games showcase on Thursday, and Madden NFL 20 cover star Patrick Mahomes made an appearance during a video package for Madden 21.

The preview was mostly filled with footage from past Madden games and focused on the evolution of the series, from John Madden Football in 1988 to the upcoming version on next-gen hardware. We did get a very brief glimpse of what Madden could look like on Xbox Series X, with a clip of Mahomes spinning through an attempted tackle and diving for the pylon to score.
