Madden 23 Won't Launch
I recently purchased Madden 23 on Steam a few days ago and since installing it, I've yet to be able to get the game to launch from either Steam or EA. I've also tried troubleshooting it with multiple...
I "might" have a workaround everyone!... On the PS5 anyway, might work on other platforms too...
On PS5 go into settings > Network. Disable connect to internet. Then open Madden 23. You will get a message about some things not being available unless you are logged into your EA account, just click ok. The game will finally load past the initial loading screen and you will get to the main menu. Click the middle PS button, go back to settings > network and re-enable connect to internet. Now go back into the game and hit R2 to log into EA. It will spin for a bit in the bottom right corner, but mine did connect. I verified I was online by checking for latest live content.
I did not have time to try an online game or anything, but it did appear I was online.
After I did this, I closed madden and went back in with internet connected and unfortunately I still have the issue, but at least I might have a workaround for now... or maybe forever because i doubt EA is going to anything about it.
Hope this helps everyone out!
It took me further into the game more I was able to all day but right when I connect to internet my game crashes
Luckily for me, the only thing I do on Madden is an off-line franchise, so I just disconnected my ethernet and could do what I normally would do. Still not an optimal work around, especially if I ever want to do anything involving internet on my PC at the same time.
@everyone
Please stand by for info while we assess this issue, thanks.
Same problem occurs to me on ps5 keep getting error code ce-108255-1 while loading the game. Can boot the game without internet connection though. But whenever I connect to the internet error code ce-108255-1 pops up. I also bought the game during last sale.
