Update – 19/08/2021 – Madden 22 update 1.003 live
A few Madden 22 players have been experiencing bugs, not only with the trial version of the game but the full release during early access too. It was being reported that some console players’ 10-hour trial was just disappearing before being fully used and then we heard reports that some hadn’t received their pre order bonus items yet. Well, EA has been working behind the scenes to nip these issues in the bud and make sure the game launch on the 10th of August is a success and that means there is a small Madden 22 update.
Madden 22 Update 1.002 Patch Notes
We will be updating this with the patch notes if and when EA makes them live. The update arrived last night and comes off the back of an EA Play announcement stating – “EA Play members on Xbox: To ensure you receive your full Madden NFL 22 Early Access Trial experience, we will be extending the trial for Xbox players. Full-timing and details here: https://go.ea.com/Kn4g8”
The Trial has been extended for Xbox players to make up for lost time but it is also being rolled out on PS5 too, meaning there are possibly other bug fixes in the mix.

The 1.002 update is around 1.5GB in size and is currently being rolled out. It is unknown, however, very likely this recent update will also roll out and automatically download when the game is fully launched on August 20th.
Madden 22 Update 1.003 Patch Notes
The Madden 22 Update 1.003.00 (PS4(1.03) is now available and downloadable. The new update is around 1GB in size but unfortunately, there are no official patch notes for the 1.003 update just yet.
Future Madden 22 Update
There are further updates coming around the Madden 22 launch, with EA Confirming that Rookie Premier is planned to go out for launch on Friday 20th, along with some bug fixes for the ‘Play Next Challenge’.
EA had already stated that there was no way to reset the 10-hour trial bug, however, at least the update puts a stop to the issue. The Madden 22 update today may be a small one but it is good to see them working hard to fix bugs in a timely manner. 1.002 patch notes to follow if they become available.
