Last Monday was revealed that all Madden NFL 21 players will be able to vote for two players to be selected for this NFL season’s Pro-Bowl.
This is the first time that EA Sports and the NFL add this feature to the franchise and it will allow players to vote in a very entertaining and dynamic way called the Video Game Numbers Challenge.
The Video Game Number Challenge will feature a pool of 32 players who will be eligible to complete this season’s Pro Bowl roster. Users will select a player from each conference, AFC and NFC, to join their respective roster.
But here comes the interesting thing, you will not need to buy MUT Coins or anything like that. The votes of the users will be made through touchdowns scored in the head-to-head matchups. Every touchdown scored by one of these 32 players between December 22 and January 3 will be taken into account for these virtual votes.
If it’s still not clear to you, here are the official notes from EA Sports regarding this unprecedented event:
Every touchdown scored by a select group of 32 eligible NFL players between Dec. 22, 2020, and Jan. 3, 2021, in Madden NFL 21 will be counted towards two of those players joining the Virtual Pro Bowl roster.
Through the Video Game Numbers Challenge, fans will add two NFL players (one AFC and one NFC) to the official Virtual Pro Bowl Roster.
The top-scoring AFC player and NFC player will participate in this year’s virtual game and will be revealed on January 4, 2021.
Players can participate in the Video Game Numbers Challenge through online Head-to-Head matchups, both ranked and unranked, across PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.
