August 4th Update
Unfortunately if you're reading this after July 22nd, you missed out on the All Madden Team player offer. However, EA announced today on Twitter that the All-Madden preorder offer has been upgraded to include an elite Headliners player in addition to the other perks outlined below. While the Headliners players have not been revealed yet, we expect some of them to be among the best players available at launch. Don't worry, if you already preordered the All-Madden edition, you'll automatically receive the Headliners player as well.
EA Sports went live on Twitch earlier tonight to reveal new information about Madden 23's preorder bonus content for Madden Ultimate Team. If you're interested in the full hour-long stream hosted by RG, you can find it here. Otherwise, here is a breakdown of what you need to know:
There are two versions of Madden 23 available for preorder: Standard ($70) and All-Madden ($100). EA Play members receive 10% off of both preorder options. If you're interested in the All-Madden version, you'll want to act fast since the All Madden Team offer expires on July 22nd. You can find more details and purchase each version here. The image below breaks down which perks come with each version of the game.
If you go for the All-Madden version, you'll get a head start on your Madden season with three days of early access beginning on August 16th. You'll also get 4,600 Madden Points, access to Exclusive Early Access Challenges, and Dual Entitlement (which allows you to upgrade to PS5 or XSX for free later in the year).
Preorder All Madden Team Players
The All-Madden preorder also allows to choose one of the following All Madden Team player items:

All-Madden Team players come with an X-Factor ability slot, a Tier 1 ability slot, a Tier 2 ability slot, and a special ability slot. The special ability slot will include abilities that will mostly be unavailable at launch outside of the All-Madden Team program. This was confirmed to include some Tier 3 abilities that normally would unlock at a higher OVR. Each player included as an option from the preorder offer is listed above along with the ability confirmed to be in their special ability slot.
