If you purchased Madden 24 on PlayStation 4 or Xbox One, you can upgrade to a later-generation console for free using Dual Entitlement. It has already been stated that developers will spend more time and energy on the PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, so you and many other gamers are encouraged to upgrade as soon as possible.
Who is Entitled to EA’s Duel Entitlement?
EA’s Duel Entitlement is available to all Madden NFL 24 players who purchase the Standard Edition and Digital Deluxe Edition. Though it appears as a digital pre-order bonus only, EA clarifies that the Duel Entitlement is dependent on whether you buy the console or the physical copy. The only hindrance in taking advantage of Duel Entitlement is that some features aren’t available on previous-generation consoles.

“Not in all instances (will it only be for digital copies). The digital version on either platform has Dual Entitlement and can be accessed on both platforms in the same console family, i.e. digital PS4/PS5 versions will provide both the PS4 and PS5 versions of the game, and digital Xbox One/Xbox Series X|S versions will provide both the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S versions of the game.
“For physical copies of the game, purchase the PlayStation 4 version to receive Dual Entitlement with PlayStation 5. The physical PlayStation 5 version does not offer Dual Entitlement. If you purchase Madden NFL 24 on either Xbox platform, you will have access to both versions of the game through Xbox Smart Delivery.”
