The new Madden 22 home field advantage system finally satisfies fan requests to make matches at venues such as Lambeau Field feel different to any other event – indeed, it's a feature which made NCAA Football so brilliant in the PS2 and PS3 era. Madden 22 offers a specific boost to the home team or downgrade to the away team, and sometimes both. Below we showcase them all, in your Madden 22 home field advantage guide.

I'm GamesRadar's freelance sports editor, and obsessed with NFL, WWE, MLB, AEW, and occasionally things that don't have a three-letter acronym – such as Chvrches, Bill Bryson, and Streets Of Rage 4. (All the Streets Of Rage games, actually.) Even after three decades I still have a soft spot for Euro Boss on the Amstrad CPC 464+.
