This includes the updates to the passing game, running game, and AI, as well as the ability to play in 60fps (PS5) or 120fps (Xbox Series X).

As before, the previous-generation and PC versions will include roster updates, but will otherwise be lacking many of the standout features available on the PS5 and Xbox Series X releases. And while Madden 23 will be once again be available on previous-gen consoles, including PS4 and Xbox One – and PC as well – there are some significant differences you should be aware of before you choose which platform to play on. Note that this review is based on the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 versions of Madden NFL 23. How Madden NFL 23 Differs on PS4, Xbox One, and PC It can be a little intense, but after the busted backyard football of the past couple years, anything that forces me to vary my approach is welcome. Tighter zone coverage also makes for smaller windows of opportunity, with interceptions sometimes coming in bunches. These changes are balanced by a more intense pass rush, which frequently saw me getting sacked if I dared to venture outside the pocket. It especially makes a difference along the sidelines and in the end zone, where space is at a premium. The most conspicuous addition, though, is Madden 23’s refined passing controls, which combine with an accuracy meter to offer more control when putting the ball in tight windows. On the flipside, the defense is far smarter than before, making this one of the most challenging Madden games in recent memory. Some improvements are intended to offer a far greater degree of control over your players, which is evident in how much more smoothly they move in this year’s version. In that vein, Madden 23 is filled with the sort of updates that are felt rather than seen. In short, if you’re hoping for a massive leap forward for the series on the new generation of consoles (or on the old ones), you’re apt to be disappointed. It’s smoother and marginally more refined, but in so many ways it’s the same old Madden. The new interface is an eyesore, and the new presentation is cast in a strange and unflattering shade of sickly green. Homefield advantage is a solid addition, but it doesn’t quite capture the true extent of real on-field momentum swings. Face of the Franchise, to put it mildly, is a mess. Madden NFL 22 is a grab bag of decent – if frequently underwhelming – ideas hurt by poor execution.
