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. Given how prominent the franchise is, I’m sure many will be interested to know of this problem.Madden NFL 22 is a grab bag of decent – if frequently underwhelming – ideas hurt by poor execution. My next step will be contacting news agencies, and asking them to investigate this story. Please investigate and resolve this issue EA. Why should I have to go out and buy a second copy of the game (for the PS4), just to play on PS5 with people using the old hardware? Especially during this pandemic and chip shortage, when consoles are rarely available to buy?

I’m asking them to do what so many other developers are already doing - make it playable between PS4 and PS5, or Xbox 1 and Xbox X/S. I’m not asking for Xbox players to play with PlayStation, as in cross-platform. Given how huge Madden is, and how many people play the game, I’m simply shocked that EA is not taking any steps to make the game playable online, between the old and new generation consoles. However, the PSN list does not show a different version for PS4, when accessed on the PS5 (even if you specifically navigate to PS4 titles, it shows the Madden version already owned and installed). EA claims that PS5 users can just download the PS4 version of the game.

Regardless of which game type we choose, it always says ‘No Friends Online’ for both of us.Ī review of these forums show that other people have reported the same issue. Unfortunately for us, EA doesn’t seem to support cross-generation support for this game. We each bought the standard digital copy of the game time on the PlayStation Network (PSN) store. I have a PlayStation 5, and he has a PS4. He’s not a big gamer, so it’s one of the few games we can play online together. My father and I buy the new release of Madden every year.
