Shortly before the end of the year there was a bug on the servers of the popular football series “Madden NFL 23”. According to Electronic Arts, around 60 percent of the saved data that was corrupted in the process can probably not be restored.
Bad news for players who swarmed the Madden NFL 23 servers on December 28th and 29th: As the year ended, the latest game in Electronic Arts’ popular football series experienced data storage issues. According to the company, only around 40 percent of the memory statuses that were corrupted in the process can be restored.
Developers are working on restoring the leagues
As Electronic Arts writes in its own forum, the error is said to have occurred between December 28 at around 8:45 p.m. and December 29 at around 6:45 p.m. Players who logged into the Madden NFL 23 servers during this time received an error message stating their leagues were unavailable. This happened due to a memory error that also damaged the franchise data of the logged-in players.
EA apologized for the issue and indicated that the developers are already working on a solution to restore some of the data from a backup as soon as possible. However, not all leagues should be able to be repaired. The company estimates that only about 40 percent of corrupted data can be recovered. Players who have not logged into Madden NFL 23 during the error period between December 28th and 29th are said to be unaffected by the error.
