It's a little late to put in a Madden 22 pre-order given that the game's release date of Friday, August 20 has been and gone. But what if, say, you ordered Madden 22 back in July and haven't got round to downloading it yet? Or you just fancy knowing what extras you could have scored by snagging your copy before its street date? Either way, you're in the right place. Below we break down each individual edition of EA's gridiron sim on your Madden 22 pre-order guide.
Madden 22 pre-order: standard edition
The basic version of Madden 22 gets you four pre-order bonuses. You’re granted 20 staff points for the newly retooled franchise mode, full details of which are included in our extensive Madden 22 preview. You get a Tom Brady gear capsule, enabling you to kit out your avatar in Brady-specific treads in The Yard. You get to immediately start The Yard and Face Of The Franchise at a Player Class of Level 10. And you get to kick off Ultimate Team with one of 32 NFL stars – the full list can be found at the bottom of this guide.
The standard edition of Madden 22 is $69.99/£69.99 on PS5 and Xbox Series X, and $59.99/£59.99 on PS4 and Xbox One.
