Odell Beckham Jr, the athlete from the cover of the title, is rated at 94 and offers fans of the New York Giants an option that is rated 99 when it comes to spectacular catches.

Madden NFL 16 introduces more realism and variety

The new focus on the battle for aerial supremacy between teams means that both receivers and quarterbacks will need to carefully use their skills to beat defensive players as they seek to secure the ball.

EA Sports is adding new catches to the simulation and more options for players to use as they seek to maximize the strong points of their own team while minimizing those of the opposition.

The new Madden NFL also uses improved presentation options, giving gamers a range of cameras that bring them closer to the action.

The Ultimate Team mode is getting a new Draft-focused experience that will be faster and easier to set up and play.

Madden NFL 16 will be offered on both the PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One on August 25.
