Not sold on the latest Madden NFL 20 but need an American Football fix? Axis Football 2019 is available right now on Xbox One, promising immersive gameplay, a deep franchise mode, and extensive customization. Surely it must deliver?
Ready for download from the Xbox Store, Axis Football 2019 follows on from the launch of Axis Football 2018 at the end of last year, to once more bring a bit of competition to EA and their Madden series.
Priced up at £24.99 (pretty much half the price of Madden), Axis Football 2019 on Xbox One has the team behind it promising the Earth, with a ton of upgrades, improvements, features and more. And if we’re totally honest, it needs it too as last year’s effort could in no way attempt to even lace the boots of Madden, with Axis Football 2018 failing with nigh-on everything except a pretty decent, robust Franchise mode. If you don’t believe me, our full review of Axis Football 2018 on Xbox One can be found here.
But that was last year and Axis Football 2019 could well be on to a bit of a winner, with improved framerates, a smoother gameplay style, and some super deep, hugely immersive gameplay features. With new stadiums and player and coach portraits, more than 2000 different plays, 50+ formations, a deep league structure and more, the promise is a real one – we just hope it all translates into something better than what was delivered last time around.
To find out you’ll have to head on over to the Xbox Store and get yourself a download moving. Make sure you let us know if you decide to give Axis Football 2019 on Xbox One a punt.
