Over half of Madden 18 players tried the Longshot story mode, which is an impressive uptick for a new mode. This all but guarantees EA will follow up with a new installment this year.
The Longshot mode was pretty rigid in terms of gameplay, which fit in with the movie like story they wanted to place the gamer in. I would love to see this evolve into the pros with a story similar to what FIFA 17 and FIFA 18 offered. It would also be great to bring player creation into the mix, allowing gamers to take advantage of the customization that Frostbite enables through various skins in Battlefield and other games to make a unique player. While I am certain we will see the story mode come back for Madden 19, I'm thinking it will still be fairly structured and I'm not confident it will take us to the pro's completely
