Why is Next Gen not being brought to PC for Madden 22?

It doesn't make any sense that Next Gen is not coming to the PC for Madden 22. While not getting for the remainder of Madden 21 made some sense - not having it all for Madden 22 is inexcusable. The E...

@EA_Blueberry Hopefully soon, because we only have until the end of this month to preorder to get the bonuses. Whatever you can find out would be appreciated. I'm just frustrated because like I said, I know its pretty simple to just port the game according some sources that I trust within game development.

As I said, the game that has been shown looks great and like its headed in the right direction. That version just needs to be offered to PC as well or at least show the current gen version in a deep dive of the differences between the versions so people will know for sure what they are getting.

@JMEllis2020 @EA_Blueberry I think having a similar dual entitlement system on PC would be the best solution. This allows people with old hardware to still play the game if the dev team is worried about that being the problem. I really like the direction the game is going and want to play it, but I can't play it in good faith knowing it is not the best user experience EA can provide. Especially considering we didn't get the Madden 21 Next Gen update so waiting 2 years for new features is ridiculous.

EDIT: It seems also likely the Fifa team may follow suit here with their Next Gen features, which will just cause this same problem to repeat of people cancelling their PC subscriptions and just not wanting to buy the game knowing it is an inferior product. I am not sure if you browse reddit Blueberry, but this thread here also helps illustrate the community frustration:  https://www.reddit.com/r/Madden/comments/oajgyc/cancelled_ea_play_because_madden_on_pc_is_a_joke/
