Madden NFL 23 Early Access Begins Now

-

Madden NFL 23 Xbox

There was only ever going to be one man legendary enough to grace the cover of this year’s Madden instalment. The late, great John Madden played football, coached football, commentated on football and even lent his name to the videogame franchise. And in Madden NFL 23, out now for Xbox, PlayStation and PC, he will forever be immortalised for the larger-than-life character he was.

The usual Early Access for Madden 23 begins today, three days earlier than the standard edition, providing you are willing to pay for it. This year’s Madden brings with it the FieldSENSE Gameplay System for Xbox Series X|S giving players more control and authentic results. It uses animation branching technology to make runs, passes, hits and more look and feel more realistic. In a nutshell, this is supposed to make the action on the field feel much more fluid and natural.

There is also a new skill-based passing mechanic that allows you and your QB to be more precise than every before. Rather than pressing a button for the intended target you can now pinpoint the location you want to throw. To counteract that is the Hit Everything mechanic, allows the defence to be more ruthless and aggressive.

Madden NFL 23 also comes with all the standard modes such as Face of the Franchise, this time as a player with a one-year contract in their 5th NFL season, Franchise mode, Madden Ultimate Team and more. Last year’s Madden NFL 22 was a pretty good outing, so hopes are high for this year’s update.

Not only does the All Madden Edition of Madden NFL 23 give you three days early access, it also comes with:

  • 4600 Madden Points
  • Dual Entitlement (Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S versions)
  • Exclusive Early Access Challenges
  • Choice of 2 Elite Players (1 Offensive & 1 Defensive)
  • All Madden Gear
  • Madden Strategy Item

The All Madden Edition is on the Xbox Store now priced at £89.99. There is also the Xbox Series X|S version priced at £69.99 and the Xbox One version at £59.99. Safe to say these do not come with an early access but will launch a few days later on the 19th August.

The new American Football season is nearly upon us, and our review will have all the best features to come out of the new Madden game. All together now: Fly, Eagles, Fly.
