Nobody does it like the Americans. The mascots, the noise, the flares and the pageantry of college football over in the States is like nothing else, and this is exactly what EA SPORTS are attempting to capture in EA SPORTS College Football 25. This is a new way to enjoy football from the comfort of your home.
Pick your Team
Available now on Xbox and PlayStation – provided you picked up the Deluxe Edition of the game – EA SPORTS College Football 25 brings all 134 FBS (football bowl subdivision) colleges to a whole new world of football.
Much like the long-standing Madden NFL line of titles, EA SPORTS College Football 25 allows you to devise plays for the ball any way you wish. Accompanying this is CampusIQ, a system that gives you the opportunity to try out iconic plays from different colleges, such as the USC’s Air Raid and Army’s Flexbone offense.
The Wear & Tear System forces you to make tactical substitutions as your players take hits over the course of the game; the last thing you would want is an injury to rule them out of the big playoff!
You’ll be able to take these teams into iconic fan-favourite modes such as Dynasty and Road to Glory, with an all-new Road to the College Football Playoff, as well as College Football Ultimate Team, bringing even more ways to play both as a single-player and in the online sphere.
Key Modes
- Dynasty: Create a coach and take control of your own college football program. Establish your coaching staff, then work to recruit the best talent either straight from high school or direct from the transfer portal. Coaching archetypes and skill trees empower you to run your program your own way as you vie for a spot in the new 12-team College Football Playoff, or create your own college football program with customization tools on the Team Builder website.
- Road To Glory: Live the life of a student-athlete with your created player and take home the Heisman as you build an unforgettable college football legacy. Manage your weekly schedule, GPA, and your image, earn Coach Trust to get more playing time, or use the transfer portal to get the time and the glory you deserve.
- Road to the College Football Playoff: Experience a new way to play competitively across consoles in the Road to the College Football Playoff. Will you represent your university, or take a power school to climb the polls? Earn rank by upsetting the toughest opponents and securing the votes you need to progress and level up divisions. Play your way into the playoffs and battle for the National Championship.
- College Football Ultimate Team: Build your dream team of college football stars and legends. Play Solo Challenges or H2H Seasons to upgrade your squad and take on the toughest contests. Test your skills across consoles in more competitive formats like College Football Ultimate Team™ Champs and Champs Gauntlet.
Glitz and Glamour
It wouldn’t be college football without all the breathtaking spectacles before the match. With those all-important mascots, stadiums, crowd chants and fight-songs included, every stadium you play in will feel faithfully reproduced from its real-world counterpart. In fact, confidence levels of your team will be greatly affected when playing away from home, so be sure to address this when it comes to making plays.
Key Game Features
- Wear & Tear System: As the hits add up, players wear down with the Wear & Tear System. Manage your players’ health, limit fatigue, assess risk of injury, and avoid on-field mistakes by using strategic substitutions to ensure your players are at their best when it counts the most.
- Pre-Snap Recognition: Pre-Snap Recognition makes the decision behind every snap matter more. Do you trust in your high-skill seniors, or take a risk with your untested freshman? Read the game, then read your players to make the right decision when the game is on the line.
- Homefield Advantage: Game-altering homefield advantages rattle your rivals in college football’s toughest places to play. Test your squad’s road game composure and confidence levels as you play through distractions like screen shaking, missing pre-play icons, and moving play art.
- Pageantry & Traditions: Revel in the storied traditions that electrify college football stadiums every Saturday. With unique team run-outs, rivalry rituals, synchronized crowd-chants, loudness meters as well as real game-day audio, fight songs and, of course, mascots, it’ll feel like home everywhere you look.
- Commentary & Broadcast: Listen to the iconic voices of Chris Fowler and Kirk Herbstreit as they call marquee matchups, while Rece Davis, Jesse Palmer, and David Pollack take the mic for all other games. Take in the sights and sounds around the stadium between plays with a dynamic picture-in-picture play-call system.
