Madden 23: What are the relocation teams & cities in Franchise Mode?

Like in previous Madden games, Franchise Mode players can relocate their current team to many different locations. These locations range from cities in the United States to Mexico, Ireland, and the United Kingdom. So, what cities are relocation options in Madden 23, and what are the team options? Let’s take a look.

How to relocate teams in Franchise Mode – Madden NFL 23

First, keep in mind that unless the relocation settings are set to All Users or Everyone (Can Relocate), teams can’t leave their location for a new one. That is, however, if the stadium rating is above 20. If it is not, that means that users can opt to leave their current setting and forego the possibility of renovations for the chance to find a new locale.

If you want to relocate, select ‘Manage Team’ in the home screen before the season starts, and then select ‘Stadium.’ If the relocation option is available, click it to begin the process. During the regular season, you will find a notification at the home screen to start the relocation process.
