The Madden 26 Close Beta is live, and gives players a chance to try out some of the new features and improvements made to the game. Players can experience the new playbooks, formations, QB and Coach DNA, and the Wear & Tear system, among many other things
While most game modes are available in the Madden 26 Close Beta, Franchise is not one of them. So, if you were hoping to get a sneak peek of the Franchise mode, you are going to have to wait a bit more.
How can Players Sign Up for the Madden 26 closed beta?
Sadly, players can't sign up for the Madden 26 Closed Beta, as it's reserved for the "most dedicated players in Madden NFL 25", according to EA Madden NFL. Unless you have received an email invitation, you won't be able to access the Madden 26 Closed Beta.
Players who were invited can redeem their beta code in the store of their respective console system, PSN, Xbox, or EA App. After that, they can download the Madden 26 Closed Beta and immerse themselves in the new title.
The Madden 26 Closed Beta will be live until June 26 at 11:59 pm ET. Players are encouraged by EA to submit their feedback directly to the EA Forums and to be as specific as possible about any issues they encounter.
It's unfortunate that Madden 26 doesn't have an open Beta, or at least allows players to apply to the Closed Beta, as they do for some of their other games, such as Skate, which Playtest 0.27 will go live soon.
Hopefully, that changes next year and EA provides more fans with a chance to try out the game earlier.
