The evolution of Madden 25 celebrations makes for one of the best new features in the updated Gridiron sim. For the first time in series history, Madden 25 enables you to trigger signature moves such as Colin Kaepernick’s bicep kiss, Cam Newton’s ball flip and Deion Sanders’ Primetime dance. There are 30 common celebrations you can unleash after touchdowns or interceptions, too. Find out how to do them all in GR’s Madden 25 celebrations guide.
How to do Madden 25 celebrations
Madden 25 celebrations are a little simpler than College Football 25 celebrations. Whereas that game has specific options after first downs, touchdowns and interceptions, Madden keeps things simpler. After any big play you’ll see an onscreen prompt with four options, such as flex, dance, swagger, or – if you’re controlling one of the players below – a more personal choice. Press up, down, left or right on the right stick to unleash the corresponding move.

How to showboat in Madden 25
Showboating isn’t a new feature, but it’s another way of demonstrating player personality – albeit a much more risky one. You can use this feature to taunt opponents when the ball is still live, such as waving it in the air while headed to the end zone. But it’s risky, as it slows your player down – and you’ll feel like a plank if it enables a defender to bring the ball carrier down. Your call, though.
To showboat, hold LT (Xbox) or L2 (PlayStation) then press A or X, depending on your console. In the market for more NFL help? Check out GR’s Madden 25 tips, Madden 25 rookie ratings and Madden 25 X-Factors guides, all of which will appear here shortly.
Weekly digests, tales from the communities you love, and more

I'm GamesRadar's sports editor, and obsessed with NFL, WWE, MLB, AEW, and occasionally things that don't have a three-letter acronym – such as Chvrches, Bill Bryson, and Streets Of Rage 4. (All the Streets Of Rage games, actually.) Even after three decades I still have a soft spot for Euro Boss on the Amstrad CPC 464+.
