Madden NFL 23 Review
Madden NFL 23 reviewed on Xbox Series X by Kat Bailey. Also available on PlayStation 5. Note: the Xbox One, PS4, and PC versions are significantly different with fewer new features; this review does not apply to those versions.
Madden fans will tell you that it hasn’t been a great decade for EA’s football sim. Like the NFL itself, the profits have continued to grow, but the product has suffered. Madden NFL 23, though, provides a glimpse of a light at the end of the tunnel with a handful of smart enhancements to animations, AI, and passing mechanics that make subtle but meaningful improvements to the moment-to-moment football on the field. To be clear, Madden still has a long way to go to catch up with other sports sims, the majority of which are more refined, less buggy, and have a clearer identity. After playing Madden NFL 23, though, I finally have a little optimism that it’s on the right path — maybe not an emphatic “Boom!”, but clear forward progress for a series that so desperately needs it.

Why cant they get fox and ESPN plus Thursday night copyright with different commentary instead of the same guy every game. Games look the same every year nothing has changed.
They should force the kids(millennials) to play a full game of Madden '92, before getting into the main menus
No next gen features on pc?? lol they dont realize how much money ppl put into their pc's? We don't like unoptimized games and especially games that don't have current features.
Feels like nfl blitz but madden the way the players move
madden 2005 is best madden
“A series that has consistently lagged behind it’s competitors”
Dude, it has no competitors. That’s part of the problem.
We all know IGN isn't a legit reviewer by now
This game is horrible!! Can't even throw without qb throwing in completely wrong direction for a interception.
laggging behind competitors? What competitors
This is the worst madden ever, a step in the wrong direction, if you like arcade style football this is for you. It's a lot of gimmick and glitchy plays on here. If you're a real football fan you probably won't like this game. 2 out of 5
For 30 bucks is okay imho
Is Aaron Hernandez on it?
Madden 23 is boo boo👎
Madden 25(2014) still is the best prove me wrong please..
EXPLAIN IN FIFA
yeah yeah BRING BACK NCAA
This is really a 2 or 3 tbh.
"How many years can you step in the right direction and get nowhere"
~ some guy probably idk
Gave the pile of hot garbage a 7???….. lmaooo.. WTF?!?!… waaaaaaayyyyy 2 generous.. I’d say a 4, 5 at best
if this is a 7, then my credit score is 1100
“Still has work to do…” – EA
2010-2023
Madden 23 is the most broken piece of garbage I’ve ever experienced, game modes, season passes, rewards, franchise, anything you can think of is broken and the game is downright unplayable. Do not waste your money, wait for sales or game pass. Maybe then the game will be fixed when you guys get it.
For next years madden (and probably the next 4) you can just edit this videos title to said madden release and call it a day. Saved you time and money IGN
7!?!?!?! You're a joke now IGN
This is a bad madden only cause the defencr will jump a interception and the wr get it
still not even close to nfl 2k5
The game hasn't changed very much in nearly 20 years./ The game is at beast 6.3.
