July 30, 2012 –Today EA SPORTS launched the Madden NFL 13 Ratings Reveal on the official Madden NFL 13Facebook page. The four-week campaign will allow fans to vote on which NFL players epitomize attributes like speed, elusiveness, hit power and more. The winner of each vote will be the highest-rated player for that attribute at their position in Madden NFL 13.

 

Voting begins today as fans can determine which NFL quarterback is the fastest in the league. The rest of the week will see fans voting on other attributes such as throw power, accuracy and awareness. Subsequent weeks will focus on running backs, wide receivers and defenders, with the winners in each category announced every Friday. Below is a breakdown of the voting schedule:

  • ·         July 30 – Aug 3: Quarterbacks – Speed, Throw Power, Throw Accuracy, Awareness
  • ·         Aug 6 – 10: Running Backs – Speed, Acceleration, Trucking, Elusiveness

Fans can keep up with all the action by visiting the Madden NFL 13 webpage throughout the duration of the campaign.

 

Not only will each winner receive a boost in their attributes in Madden NFL13, but they’ll also be immortalized with a special card in Madden Ultimate Team.  Fans who collect the cards of every winning player will be able to add them to a collection which will unlock a special Madden Ultimate Team reward in Madden NFL 13.

 

Furthermore, NFL Hall of Famer Marshall Faulk will be hosting weekly videos on the EA SPORTS YouTube page revealing the top ten rated players at each position. Faulk will also be appearing on theMadden NFL podcast to unveil winners and provide his own expert analysis.
