Buy for Madden 21 Bonuses

1 / 7

When you buy Madden 21 you get some bonus items. There are a number of bonuses that you get when you buy the game which changes based on the edition, but there are a few time-based bonuses as well.

If you buy Madden 21 at GameStop or Best Buy, you can collect some bonus items. Best Buy offers a physical bonus and GameStop offers a digital bonus. These are technically pre-order bonuses, but you should still get them during the release week.

At GameStop if you pre-order Madden 21 you get a Tony Romo Elite player for Madden Ultimate Team. This is a pre-order item while supplies last. We don't expect that it will low, but if you buy it on the day of or day after release, you may not get it. If you pre-order at GameStop, you can also get Madden 20 for $14.99.

Best Buy includes a Lamar Jackson Funko Pop figurine when you pre-order any of the Madden 21 editions. This is a cool bonus if you like physical collectibles and it's a $9.99 value.

We'll update this listing if we find any other Madden 21 pre-order bonuses. You can get the Fantasy Packs and other edition bonuses whenever you buy the games.
