Maximum Entertainment today released a major update to online mode Maximum Pro League (MPL), making the update the most ambitious evolution yet for Maximum Football. Available alongside Season Pass 6, this major update to online multiplayer fundamentally transforms how players build, customize, and dominate on the field, shifting the focus from chance-based systems to full player-driven progression.

For more details on today’s Maximum Pro League update, watch Maximum Football’s latest community update video:

From its inception, Maximum Football has centered on giving players the tools to build their own football universe. With this update, that vision reaches a new level.

From Chance to Control: A New Era of Team Building

In previous iterations, building a competitive roster often relied on luck. The MPL update eliminates that dependency, introducing a system where players actively shape their athletes’ identities and performance.

Instead of relying on pre-defined archetypes, every player card now serves as a customizable foundation, allowing users to develop athletes that fit their exact playstyle, whether starting from a Rookie or a Generational talent.

Higher rarity cards unlock:

  • Increased stat floors
  • Expanded badge slots
  • Greater customization potential

To support this new system, all players will begin with a fresh roster. However, existing players who financially invested in MPL 1.0 will receive packs of new cards to accelerate their transition.

Introducing Badges

Badges represent the core of MPL’s new customization system, enabling players to define how their athletes perform on the field. Found in packs and attachable to player cards, Badges provide targeted stat boosts and unlock unique playstyles. This system allows for the creation of highly specialized builds, from ultra-fast running backs to dominant defensive anchors.

Note on Last Gen Hardware:

While last-gen hardware players will still have access to Exhibition, Gridiron, Team Customization, Dynasty, Franchise and the Store, support for the other modes on Xbox One X and PlayStation 4 will be sunset in order to improve the on-field performance for the majority of players. Accordingly, online matchmaking for Exhibition matches will now be limited to players on the same console to avoid technical conflicts with newer versions of the game.

Season Pass 6 is Now Available

With the overhaul to MPL also comes Season Pass 6. The Out of Bounds pass takes players to where they’ve never gone before.

The update reinforces the game’s commitment to community-driven evolution while empowering players to fully control their progression.
