EA Sports College Football 25 will be the first new college football game from Electronic Arts since 2013's release of NCAA Football 14. EA promised to share the first gameplay details for College Football 25 today and they have done precisely that. EA also recently shared a look at the game's three cover athletes earlier this week.

EA Sports is introducing something they called CampusIQ. This is "a suite of features that brings to life the true depth of college football through wide open, fast-paced gameplay across all 134 FBS schools in all areas of the game." College Football 25 will include returning favorites such as the Dynasty and Road to Glory modes. You will be able to play as either a created college football coach or as a player in the Road to the College Football Playoff and College Football Ultimate Team modes.

EA Sports College Football 25 promises to bring all those sights, sounds, fight songs, mascots, and on-field action you expect from college games. Marquee matchups will have commentary from Chris Fowler and Kirk Herbstreit. For all other games, Rece Davis, Jesse Palmer, and David Pollack will take over the commentary duties.

EA Sports College Football 25 is up for pre-order now on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. The game is slated to be released on July 19 with different purchase options offering up to three days of early access time. There is even an MVP Bundle that gives you the deluxe editions of both Madden NFL 25 and College Football 25 with exclusive content.
