Choose Between H2H and Play a Friend

Madden NFL 25 features two multiplayer modes: Head-to-Head (H2H) and Play a Friend. H2H is an online multiplayer mode that allows you to play against random players through either casual or ranked games. Play a Friend, on the other hand, is a mode that lets you play only with friends on your friend list.

There are also other modes that combine both as one mode, such as H2H Play a Friend in Quickplay and Ultimate Team.

Ultimate Team

Ultimate Team offers three different settings for the Play a Friend game mode. These include H2H PAF, All-Madden H2H PAF, and Squads PAF, each offering different ways to play with friends, whether through quick play, harder difficulties, or teaming up as squads.

For Head-to-Head, you can choose from four different game modes: Regular Season, H2H Ranked, Squads Regular Season, and Champions. Regular Multiplayer modes are casual game modes where you can practice with your team, while the others are for ranked games which you can go for once you're ready to face other players on the leaderboard.
