Under The Spotlight

The latest Spotlight Pass has hit Madden NFL 26 Mobile, and with it comes two new covetable Player Traits!
As with each Spotlight Pass you'll have two whole weeks to dive in and grab some awesome rewards, and master the two new highlighted Player Traits!
So, how does it all work?
You'll be playing a series of Mini-Games, and as you play, you'll rack up turns.
The four main Mini-Games you can expect to see are:
- Touchdown Trail
- Jigsaw
- Formation
- EndZone Fever
As you play the Mini-Games, you’ll hit the Spotlight Pass milestones, rewarding you with Keys for new Player Traits, Coins, and advancing your progress along the Spotlight Pass journey.
Plus, hitting those milestones also pushes you further along the Spotlight Pass itself, opening up the door to even higher tiers of rewards.
While the Spotlight Pass can be conquered without spending a dime, just like the Field Pass there is an optional paid VIP track!
Our latest Spotlight Pass runs until January 21st at 10:30 AM ET, so make sure to get cracking on those games, and start raking in the Keys!
