Defending the game from online reviewers and backlash from fans Oldenburg in the interview said, “We are very confident that our game for Madden 23 is going to be the most polished version of Madden that we’ve had in a long time.”
He then further added, “What I’m not going to say is it’s going to be perfect, but I am going to say that the team is still striving to reach perfection, as hard as that may be to reach. That is what our goal is. Polish is our top priority, and we know that we cannot reach our goals if our players believe that our game is a buggy experience.”
Mike Mahar, also a producer for Madden 23, and Oldenburg said that they went through every review on the internet “line by line”, to figure out all the bugs and glitches that fans are complaining about.
What are some hilarious bugs found in the game so far?
According to some videos that surfaced online, Madden 23 has a lot of hilarious bugs in the game. For starters, sometimes a player from your own team will try to stop you, while in another bug an invisible player will carry the ball across the gridiron.
Some fans also complain that the game causes other sections of the game to suddenly appear on the field, while some shared tweets showing players celebrating breaking up a play instead of a touchdown.
