EA has restored a limited number of Madden 23 cloud saves that were corrupted in December but confirmed that others are completely lost and unrecoverable.

Since Madden 23 launched in August last year, many players have reported issues with the game's Franchise mode while others have lost saved data due to the faulty cloud services. Some players were locked out of the leagues because of this problem and although a fix arrived on December 15, another issue appeared days later. This bug made it so an unknown number of player-made leagues were permanently deleted, with no way to get them back.

However, it looks like EA has finally been able to help some players with the issue. An email sent to select players--via MillsTwitch on Twitter--explained that after Franchise cloud saves corrupted some leagues during a 10-hour window on December 28, the team began investigating and working to recover the missing leagues.
