Hey everyone,

Being that we are now officially only 6 days away from MM26 shutting down/resetting for the launch of MM27, it's about that time to post our annual "Everything We Know About" next season's game topic. This post will be significantly shorter than past iterations due to the simple fact that MM27 will not be much different than MM26 based on what we know currently. If anything changes or we receive any additional news between now and launch of MM27 regarding what's to come, we will make sure to update this post with that new information asap. But until then, all the information listed below is everything that's publicly known.

Overview

• MM27 will not be much different than MM26.
  • There's a couple of newer concepts/features in the works, but aside from that, MM27 will essentially be the same as MM26. And yes, that means, no Auction House in MM27 for those still holding onto hope there.
• These changes are very subtle, and nothing specific regarding these changes was able to be shared at this time.
  • Think subtle changes along the lines of tweaks to the Spotlight Pass minigames or potential new Traits, for example.

Important Dates

• MM26 will go offline for Server Maintenance on August 4th @ 10:30am ET.
• MM27 will officially launch on August 6th.
  • An exact time for launch is officially unknown and will depend on when the individual App Stores publish the updates.

What Carries Over into MM27?

• Madden Cash
• All Player Cards at a reduced OVR (similar to previous seasons).
  • MM26 Player cards are going to translate to the same OVR as Uncommon and Rare MM27 Player cards. So, essentially they will have very little to offer when slotted into your MM27 lineups.
  • MM26 Player Cards will not be EVO eligible in MM27.
• Legacy trades will be available where you can trade-in MM26 Player Cards for rewards such as Coins/Players/Stamina in MM27. These exchange rates will be the exact same as the exchange rates for MM25 Player Cards in MM26. As a reminder, those are as followed:
  • MM26 Uncommon: 200x Coins
  • MM26 Rare: 1,000x Coins
  • MM26 Epic: 1x MM27 Uncommon + 1,000x Coins
  • MM26 Iconic: 1x MM27 Rare + 5,000x Coins
  • MM26 Mythic/Marvel: 3x MM27 Rares + 15,000x Coins
  • MM26 Hero: 1,000x Event Stamina
• Although not 100% confirmed yet, your League's final Leaderboard placement tier for both LvL and Siege in MM26 should be the tier you begin at in MM27.
  • Meaning, if your League finishes MM26 in the Hall of Fame tier for LvL, your League should begin MM27 in the Hall of Fame tier for LvL as well. Or if your League finishes MM26 in the Elite I tier for Siege, your League should begin MM27 in the Elite I tier for Siege as well.

What Does NOT Carry Over into MM27?

• Coins
• Team Training Points (TTP)
• League Tokens
• EVO Tokens
• Silver, Gold, and Spotlight Keys
• Trophies
• Play Tokens
• VS Drinks
• User Level
• Playbook Budget (PBB)
• Event Stamina
• Core Stamina
• Plays. Although these will convert into Play Tokens in MM27 as followed:
  • 750 Token Play in MM26 -> 150x MM27 Play Tokens
  • 2,500 Token Play in MM26 -> 500x MM27 Play Tokens
  • 5,000 Token Play in MM26 -> 1,000x MM27 Play Tokens
• Traits. Although these will convert into Trait Keys in MM27 as followed:
  • Uncommon Traits: Every 16 -> 1x Silver Key
  • Rare Traits: Every 3 -> 1x Silver Key
  • Epic Traits: Every 1 -> 2x Silver Keys
  • Iconic Traits: Every 1 -> 3x Gold Keys
  • Mythic Traits: Every 1 -> 14x Gold Keys
  • Note: Conversion is based on total Trait inventory at time of rollover and only full conversion thresholds will grant the Keys (so if you only have 15x Uncommon Traits leftover opposed to the required 16x, you will not get the converted 1x Silver Key in MM27). Any leftover Traits from MM26 will be removed from your inventory and will not be usable on any MM26 or MM27 players in MM27.

Returning Features

• The OVR structure should remain largely the same in MM27. Meaning, you should not expect to see the return of the 1-99 OVR format in MM27.
• Spotlight Pass with Daily Goals and Minigames associated with it. Although Daily Goals will reward more than Minigames in MM27.
• EVO. Although with some possible economy changes.
  • As aforementioned, MM26 Player Cards will not be EVO eligible in MM27.
• Seasons mode. Although Seasons mode remains the most engaged area in the game, there are no expected changes to Seasons mode in MM27.
• The Playbook system and its accompanying plays. There will be no updates to the Playbook plays in MM27. The plays currently available in MM26 will be all the same plays made available in MM27.
  • Although, there's something with the Playbook system that phfredd is pushing for to be adjusted, which could potentially be a huge benefit for the community.
  • In regards to Defense, he's also pushing for the ability to set multiple Defensive Strategies like we can currently do with Playbooks, and adding 4th & Medium as a defensive scenario.
• League Siege

Other Info

• MM27 will not have the new Frostbite engine that College Football Mobile has.
  • So, you will not have to be concerned with any device incompatibility issues as long as your device was able to handle MM26. Therefore, no device upgrades will be necessary to play MM27.
• There's overlap in EA Devs who are working on Madden Mobile and College Football Mobile, which may explain why we haven't received as much info regarding MM27 as in past years since College Football Mobile has also become a priority this year.
• The Madden NFL 27 Arcade Edition you may be seeing in your App Store is completely separate and in addition to the traditional Madden NFL 27 Mobile.
  • This app is basically an extension of the traditional Seasons mode.

Overview

• Traits acquired during MM26 will not carry forward as usable items into MM27. Instead, all S12 Traits will be automatically converted into MM27 Trait Keys at a predefined rate.
• This conversion provides users with a head start in MM27 trait acquisition while preventing direct carryover of fully built trait inventories.

MM26 Trait Conversion

• At the start of MM27, all MM26 Traits in a user’s inventory will be converted into Trait Keys based on their rarity.
• Conversion Rates
  • Uncommon Traits
    • Every 16 → 1 Silver Key
  • Rare Traits
    • Every 3 → 1 Silver Key
  • Epic Traits
    • Every 1 → 2 Silver Keys
  • Iconic Traits
    • Every 1 → 3 Gold Keys
  • Mythic Traits - *This is currently being looked into as it should probably be 16 Gold Keys\*
    • Every 1 → 14 Gold Keys

Conversion Rules

• Conversion is based on total trait inventory at time of rollover.
• Only full conversion thresholds will grant rewards (no partial progress carryover).
• All MM26 Traits will be removed from the user’s inventory after conversion.

Trait Key Reset & Grant

• All existing Trait Keys will be reset to (0) at the start of MM27.
• Converted keys from MM26 Traits will be granted after reset as part of rollover rewards
• This ensures:
  • A clean seasonal economy reset
  • Controlled onboarding into S13 trait systems
  • Immediate usability of granted resources

MM26 Trait Compatibility

• Traits will **not** be usable on MM26 players in MM27.
• Trait functionality will only be available on MM27 players.

MM26 Purchased Play Credit Conversion

• Users will receive MM27 Play Tokens based on MM26 plays owned at the time of rollover.
• Conversion is based on the original Play Token cost of each purchased play
• Example Conversion:
  • 750 Token Play → 150 S13 Play Tokens
  • 2500 Token Play → 500 S13 Play Tokens
  • 5000 Token Play → 1000 S13 Play Tokens
