General Gameplay Assistance
Trucking, juking, back-shoulder fades, and spies might sound like words used in a daytime drama, but these are all football terms. And they're all in Madden NFL 23. However, executing these schemes, strategies, and moves aren't always a simple button away.

The League (Face Of The Franchise And The Yard)
Those who dream of becoming a player in the NFL or on an arena team can find their dreams coming true in The League, which encompasses the realistic career with Face of the Franchise mode as well as The Yard, which is more of an arcade-style game.
Playing next to NFL legends of today and friends is really what makes the game so special. That added layer of immersion that comes from creating an avatar that does what gamers always wanted to do is a hard feeling to beat.

Madden Ultimate Team
Lovingly called MUT by the community, players can go beyond just the players of today and bring to life an all-time team on offense, defense, and special teams. That is, of course, if they get lucky and have lots of cash on hand.
Love it or hate it, this is the mode that bankrolls the game. While getting to be one of the best will still require tens of thousands of dollars every few months, those who don't want to spend a dime will still find some single-player fun.

Player Info
Rankings, ratings, X-Factors, OVRs, and stats. Putting together a perfect team or trimming up overpriced stars isn't easy unless gamers are equipped with in-depth details about the athletes themselves.

Discussion And Rankings
If anything in Madden makes a splash on the culture, it's player rankings. Those who don't play any video games at all will wonder where their favorite players got ranked in Madden NFL 23 and if the rating makes sense. Sometimes these inquirers are the players themselves.
Those who are wondering about ratings and the elusive level 99 Club are not alone. Gamers and non-gamers even remotely interested in football should take a peek and see how well the adjusters did this year and if their player predictions panned out.

Offensive Player Ratings
Fantasy Football enthusiasts should take note of the hottest offensive players every year. Madden NFL 23 has a pretty great record when it comes to spotting a hot but underrated playmaker and identifying if they'll get a chance with the ball in their hands this year. If they do, watch out.
-
Defensive Player Ratings
Individual defense players often don't get the recognition they deserve as their statistical contributions are typically given to the entire unit as a whole. Some players are so transcendent, however, that failing to recognize them as athletes would be a mistake. Gamers who acquire these players are going to be happy they're on the squad.

This may also be a selling point for those who might have enjoyed the game in the past and found that there were a few flaws that needed to be ironed out. These kinds of facts also give some insight into what the developers are doing for the future of the franchise.
