A new report about the "Madden NFL 16" has surfaced on Thursday, saying that the game will have a new feature called the "Draft Champions" Ranked Mode. The news comes after game developer EA Sports announced that it will release a new update to the game. The game's new patch will also feature a "Play-A-Friend" feature and include some gameplay improvements and fixes, a report from Design & Trend said.

"Draft Champions has been a great addition to Madden NFL 16, but one thing that we heard when the game launched this year was that the players were hungry to be able to draft and play against their friends. In past years, we might have had to wait another year to put in a brand new feature like this, but one of the things we're most proud of in Madden NFL 16 is how many great improvements we've been able to deliver throughout the year," EA Sports said.

It can be recalled that the game developer recently released the game's week 12 roster which includes a rise in the ratings of Adrian Peterson and Brock Osweiler. Listed below are the game's players whose ratings increased and decreased, according to the report.

"You'll start Draft Champions Play-A-Friend by drafting a new squad. From there, you'll have the opportunity to play up to 5 games with that drafted team against members from your friends list. After 5 games, the process will start over and you'll need to draft another team. We also give you the ability to reset your team and re-draft once every 24-hours. In addition to the arrival of Draft Champions Play-A-Friend, this Patch also includes some key stability fixes that improves a few known in-game crashes," Operation Sports said.
