Madden 21 on PC will not load saved Franchise

Played through 1 year of Franchise mode and backed out to eat dinner. Came back and the saved Franchise will not load. I click it and all it will do is sit on a loading screen.  Had multiple other saves for other Franchises that I have stated and none of them will load either. Have to exit out of the game all together to get off the loading screen. All are Offline franchises.

    Hey @rickbmerc


    Have you had a chance to try repairing Madden NFL 21 in Origin to see if that helps at all? If there's a problem with the game data that may help fix the issue. 

    If you right-click on the game in your Origin Library you'll see a Repair option when the menu comes up. Let me know if you're still having trouble loading up your Franchise save after that. Thanks!

    Thanks for giving that a shot. It sounds like that particular save file may have become corrupted. If repairing the game hasn't helped, the actual save file itself may have been damaged. Do you recall running into any crashes or anything recently while you were playing that Franchise?

  • This isn't a file issue. I have tried repairing but every offline franchise I make it will not let me load after I save.

  • What happens if the file is corrupt? My offline franchise won’t load and I had a game crash. Any way to save it?

    There is no way that each and every save file that I create becomes corrupted.  I have started 2 new offline franchises since encountering this problem and I have encountered this problem again each time i have left the save and tried to reload it.  It makes the game downright unplayable if I can not save any of my progress
