The Madden 24 Campus Heroes Program is live in Ultimate Team following its reveal on Good Morning Madden. As many fans might remember from previous editions of the game, the Campus Heroes promo is one that honors players that had iconic collegiate careers prior to becoming NFL stars.
With Madden 24 now out for two weeks, fans have not only been able to check out the new player ratings, but have also been digging into a handful of the new promos in Ultimate Team, including the AKA Program. And with the NFL regular season commencing next Thursday, September 7, Madden 24 is back with another promo, this time presenting its new Campus Heroes Program.
Madden 24 Campus Heroes Program release time
The Madden 24 Campus Heroes Program went live on August 31, but did not launch at the targeted 1:30PM EST / 6:30PM GMT start time. In fact, Madden NFL Direct posted an announcement that the release was going to be delayed and would be arriving at a later time. Roughly four and a half hours later (6PM EST / 11PM GMT), Madden 24 finally went live with its new Campus Heroes Program.
This is the first Campus Heroes Program release that will arrive in Madden 24 Ultimate Team. Whether there will be a second is still unknown at this time of writing. But seeing that was the case last year in Madden 23, we are predicting that a second will likely arrive towards the end of the college football season in January, 2024.
Madden 24 Campus Heroes Program details
The Campus Heroes Program comes with a handful of important details to be aware of. First and foremost, the new promo has its very own Field Pass that consists of 11 Levels.
Along the reward path, fans can unlock increments of 5,000 Season 1 XP, Helmet Sticker Tokens (which can be used to upgrade a certain player item), as well as 79 and 81 OVR Campus Heroes players. The final and ultimate Tier 11 reward consists of choosing between an 81 OVR Campus Hero Fantasy Pack or 50,000 Ultimate Team Coin.
In addition to the Field Pass, the Campus Heroes Program also comes with a set of challenges fans can complete for Helmet Sticker Tokens and an exclusive player reward. There are four Campus Heroes challenge sequences that consist of 50 stars each (200 in total), granting fans the opportunity to unlock 8 Tiers worth of rewards.
But with that covered, many of you are likely after the new player items. And we detail the full list of Elites, Heroes, and Champions that arrived with the Campus Heroes Program in Madden 24 Ultimate Team.
Madden 24 Campus Heroes Program players
The Madden 24 Campus Heroes Program comes with several new players, 24 of which consist of 81+ overall ratings. Though there’s a variety of 79 overall gold players that come with the program as well, we, much like Good Morning Madden, will only be listing the 24 81+ overall players that most fans will be after as they continue to build their teams.
Fans can unlock these new Campus Heroes Program players from its Field Pass, Challenges, and the Sets it has available for its players and packs. So without another moment to spare, here’s a look at all the new player items that will arrive with the Madden 24 Campus Heroes Program.
