Madden NFL 23 received a December title update on Thursday, an update with a set of patch notes detailing the addition of what Electronic Arts called a “top requested” feature. That feature is the ability to enter a Practice Mode within the game’s madden Ultimate Team Feature so that players can test their teams’ setups before taking them into a competitive match. The patch notes in question detailed a couple of in-mode features that are in place now as well as the benefits of this MUT Practice Mode and further plans for it.
- This mode will include the standard settings that are available to players in our regular Practice Mode with the addition of a hot button to take you directly to your lineup. This means players can change players and playbooks without having to back out of the screen.
- Additionally, players can set their Practice Type, Skill Level and Game Style to simulate any kind of challenge they might face in MUT.
- Superstar X-Factors and Superstar Abilities are enabled so users can easily test and experiment with all abilities available in Ultimate Team.
- X-Factors will function as normal in MUT Practice mode. Players will be able to complete the activation steps and power up, then completing the deactivation criteria will turn the X-Factor off.
- At this time, this feature does not include 2nd controller support, but we are aware how important that functionality is to our players and we are investigating adding it.
