Now Playing: Madden NFL 22 Video Review
Sports Gamers Online reported recently that EA Sports opted to cancel further updates to Madden NFL 22’s Franchise mode. Madden’s Franchise mode has been a particular pain point for the series over the years, with fans asking for bigger, more robust updates to the mode and not always getting what they want.
GameSpot’s Madden NFL 22 review praised the game, in part, for its “meaningful new additions” to the Franchise mode, including new weekly strategies. “No two games are the same, and Franchise manages to strike a sweet spot where what you do off the field has a rewarding impact on what you do on it, to the point where it has fundamentally changed how you’re expected to approach each match-up,” reviewer Richard Wakeling said.
