PS4 / PS5
Check your version before starting: Throwin’ Dots needs a high touchdown pass on PS5 and a low one on PS4. Set aside an online Franchise for Head-to-Head and the Super Bowl, and track the five Superstar positions separately. If you start with single-game objectives, group the defensive actions you can reliably repeat into one game.
This is Madden NFL 25 released in 2024, not the 2013 title. The checklist is for PS5 (21 trophies); the roadmap explains the 20-trophy PS4 list.
- Difficulty: No specific difficulty is named in the base list.
- Multiplayer: Online Franchise for two trophies. Head-to-Head needs another player; the final can be against the CPU.
- PS5 difference: Saw It Coming is exclusive to the PS5 list; Primetime changes grade.
Practise Throwin’ Dots on your version
Open the passing controls and find the throw modifier for your console. Once near the end zone, look for an open target and score a touchdown with the correct pass: high on PS5, low on PS4. In a game with open field for the ball carrier, also gain yards while using Celebration Loco rather than stopping after the first animation. The condition is the same on both lists even though Primetime changes grade.
- Read the description on your console before choosing the pass type.
Set up the online league before the playoffs
In Franchise, choose the online save and invite another player. Arrange your scheduled matchup and win for Head-to-Head. You can then take the same league into the postseason and play the Super Bowl for Bragging Rights; a CPU opponent is a workable route for the final. If you start an offline Franchise to experiment with your roster, keep it separate from the online title run.
- Use online Franchise even if the Super Bowl opponent is controlled by the CPU.
Use the draft and plan your cap space
Look for a rookie with a hidden development trait for Stud Finder. Put him on the field and watch the roster tracker until his real trait is visible; Future of the Franchise requires revealing X-Factor potential. Spend one season pursuing MVP and Rookie of the Year while checking the award standings. Keep room for two moves: winning the bidding on a free agent rated 90 OVR or higher and re-signing an existing 90+ player.
- Check the revealed trait and handle the two contracts separately.
Finish the press objectives and PS5 turnover
For Lockdown Corner, keep the same cornerback on the field and try press coverage across several plays; win three presses in one game. For Unblockable, use three different pass-rush moves and finish each with a sack or tackle for loss. On PS5, set up a game for Saw It Coming: use a Tendency Counter and force a turnover on that same play. That trophy is absent from PS4.
- Track three distinct rush moves and check your version before pursuing the Tendency Counter.
Max all five Superstar avatars
Start a career for QB, RB, WR, CB and LB. Alternate training and games, following objectives that award XP for the current position. Check the level on the avatar profile instead of stopping at a high OVR. Finish one position at a time and verify that its trophy unlocks. If you still need to relocate a team or complete a Fantasy Draft, use a separate test Franchise.
- Check off Pocket Ace, Gain Train, Ol’ Reliable, Lockdown Leader and The Fortress individually.
