Community ManagerMadden NFL 22 Mobile Journeys Reveal
Hello, Madden Mobile fans!
Today we revealed Journeys in Madden NFL 22 Mobile. Here are some details about what you can expect.
Journeys - Why? What’s their purpose?
- We want to reward users for progression of their OVR & the new Levelling/Ranking systems in a simple, clear cut, easy to understand way.
- The higher your player’s levels & ranks, the more OVR you acquire, the more challenges you can overcome in Journeys.
- Journeys also serve as the main way to check your progression throughout the game.
- Journeys will have lineup requirements and lineup benefits, which require you to not only be skilled at gameplay, but also to figure out the best avenues to upgrade your players.
- Journeys will be consistent, permanent and replayable because of how we’re implementing Bonus Objectives
- It’s also massively important in how we teach our gameplay & systems
- With this, users can always come back and have somewhere to check their Progression against. Journeys help create a clear sense of where you are, and where you are going.
- We also prioritized some new art tech that made things like parallaxing backgrounds possible
- The goal here is that interacting with the maps feels refreshing to long term users.
Journeys - What type of content will there be?
- We will launch with Journey: Genesis, AFC & NFC Journeys (which require Genesis completion first)
- There will be more to come later.
- We will determine/figure out what feels like an appropriate cadence to release more Journeys.
- Hand-crafted, linear progression & rewards
- A ton of effort went into making sure the maps feel fresh with awesome art that matches narrative & the gameplay events.
- For example, Tom Brady is the reward from Stage 1 and Mahomes is the reward from Stage 2. We then have some really cool rewards that interact with these players that you get early on which enables you to increase OVR on these guys & progress further.
- We have made it so that completing the end of a Stage is a big deal with a useful, targeted reward. This will also include occasional features/content unlocks as a result of your completion.

- Bonus Objectives
- We want to make gameplay feel not as repetitive this year. One of the ways we’re doing this for launch is by curating bonus objectives
- Think of these like side quests that encourage you to play that event differently.
- For example, “Comeback in the 4th quarter” would be the main objective, while “kick 2 field goals” would be a bonus objective.
- Another could be “Rush for 20 yards” and you could get a bonus for doing it in one play.

Welcome to a new season, @lkbroach!
If you go to the Featured Store in game > Currencies tab you'll see your total amount of Training in the top right corner.
When you're leveling up a player it will show how much Training is required on the right side (It shows how many coins are required too).
