College Football 25 marked the return of the iconic franchise for the first time since NCAA Football 14 and brought a new twist given the availability of name, image and likeness opportunities in hot sports.
This allowed genuine players with genuine grades and appearances to appear in the game, and the 3 athletes of Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers, Michigan running back Donovan Edwards, and Colorado receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter were all existing players.
Hunter won the Heisman Trophy, while Ewers led the Longhorns to the semifinals of the high school football playoffs after appearing on the cover. The Edwards Wolverines entered the ReliaQuest Bowl with a 7-5 regular season record.
With genuine players, genuine stadiums that reflect iconic game reports depicting school football, and game modes like Dynasty and Road to Glory, the game is a commercial success.
According to Sports Business Journal, EA Sports College Football 25 has the best-selling sports game of all time in the US market.
This is a testament to the popularity of high school football and the game’s ability to paint the spectacle that makes the game so special to so many other people who have made it a success. And that also makes it unexpected that he returns for a second year.
While there is no official release date at this time, the game will be available this summer and before the 2025 high school football season.
So get ready to hit the recruiting trail, take on your rivals and chase the virtual College Football Playoff national championship once again.
