Every home-field advantage in Madden 22
Madden 22 frenzy is slated to take over pretty soon. This year, one of the biggest additions to the gameplay will be the home-field advantages for each NFL stadium.

More about stadiums in Madden 22
This new feature will likely create a new meta in Madden 22. There will likely be a couple of stadiums that are bonafide favorites to use.
Based on this list, stadiums with "unstable ground" and the New Orleans Saints' "Who Dat" abilities appear to be the early favorites. However, one can only wait until Madden players get the game in their hands to see which venues end up as the favorites.
When will the new Madden be released?
Those purchasing the MVP edition of Madden 22 will have the opportunity to play the game on August 17, 2021.
There has been no confirmation yet on when the standard version will be released. In years past, those who bought the regular version of Madden would have to wait a few days to play. Considering this, the standard version of Madden 22 will likely drop around August 20.
