Are you looking to experience some of the new features coming with EA Sports’ latest American football game title: Madden NFL 24? If the answer is yes, but you don’t know what’s required for you to join the closed beta testing before Madden 24 drops for the public on August 18, then I will guide you through the process.
How to Join Madden NFL 24 Closed Beta
Firstly, to join the Madden NLF 24 closed beta, you must own a PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, or PC. Because most of the focus and efforts are going into the newer-generation consoles and PCs, testing is exclusive to these consoles.
Additionally, those outside of the US and Canada will not be able to take part in the pre-game launch fun. Players must be 18 years of age or older. Once accepted, the most important rules are to not record, screenshot, or stream gameplay. Failure to abide by these rules will result in you getting kicked off the closed beta and possibly losing your Madden NFL account.
