Note that one of the big new additions to Madden this year is the FieldSENSE Gameplay system, which “equips players with more control at all positions in every mode. FieldSENSE leverages animation branching technology and a suite of new user control mechanics for a seamless gameplay flow with authentic results on every play”. Given the technological limitations of older systems, this feature will only be available PS5 and Xbox Series X versions of Madden NFL 23. You can take a peek at FieldSENSE in the Madden NFL 23 trailer.ย
“Coach Madden lived and breathed football and his commitment to authenticity is at the heart ofย EA Sports,” said EA’s Executive Producer of Madden NFL Gameplay Aaron McHardy in an accompanying press release today. “Coach Madden had a vision for the most realistic 11v11 football simulation possible and with FieldSense the game is more authentic this year and beyond. We can’t wait for our fans to feel the control they have inย Madden NFL 23, the new features we built with FieldSense put the power in their hands to make big plays all over the field.”ย
