Madden 23 new gameplay features
EA is introducing a new system called FieldSENSE in Madden 23, and is calling it “a new foundation for consistent, ultra-realistic gameplay”. This uses branching animations which redefine the way players interact with each other in the air and on the ground using what EA is calling Hit Everything.
Players can also expect 360 cuts for increased directional control, and a passing overhaul called Skill Based Passing which lets players direct and dictate the power of a pass.
There are also new broadcast-style features, like touchdown cameras, and improved player likenesses and body scans, while Face of the Franchise: The League returns with the addition of the cornerback position. Franchise Mode will also see improvements to Free Agency, Contracts, scouting, and Trade Logic.
