EA Sports releases video teaser for College Football 25 video game
The highly anticipated wait seems to be getting closer and closer to being over, as EA Sports officially revealed the month they’ll release of the College Football 25 video game. With many fans itching for a college football video game for around a decade since the final iteration of NCAA Football 14.
On Thursday EA unveiled the official logo for the College Football 25 game and forecasted a full reveal in May. But they also released an official video teaser of the game that will surely get college football fans and gamers alike ready for the full rollout.
Check out EA Sports’ teaser video for the College Football 25 video game coming this summer below.
In February of 2021 EA Sports announced the return of the game with a new Twitter handle and a picture reading ‘College Football is coming back.’ Adding fuel to the fire of the anticipation of one of the most cherished video games of the generation. Also revealing in November 2022 that the beloved Dynasty and Road To Glory game modes would be returning to the latest version of the game.
NCAA Football 14 sold over a million copies, and following the longstanding hiatus and the continued rise of college football as a whole, surely the new College Football 25 video game can match or surpass those numbers.
Fans have been clamoring for a new college football video game from EA Sports for quite some time, which was addresses by the narrator of the company’s latest trailer.
“So let’s address the Big Al in the room,” EA’s spokesperson said in the teaser. “Yeah we’ve seen the posts, the predictions, the doubts. We get it, it’s been a minute. Let’s just say this isn’t the only jersey we’ve been working on.”
“The game this sport deserves.”
The trailer does not feature any game play, but does show various stadium, uniform, and mascots designs, with Matt Brown of Extra Points documenting that thousands of image and audio assets have been sent from schools to EA ahead of the game’s highly anticipated release.
A large reason for the holdup on the game stems from the emergence of lawsuits regarding the name, image, and likeness of student-athletes. Highlighted by the decision to sue the NCAA from former UCLA basketball player Ed O’Bannon and 19 others arguing the organization violated United States antitrust laws by not allowing athletes to make a share of the revenues generated from the use of their in broadcasts and video games.
But following the nationwide legalization of NIL for student-athletes on July 1, 2021, real players will be featured in the game for the very first time and will receive compensation if they opt in. With EA continuing to work with OneTeam Partners and Opendorse through the spring in order to properly distribute payment to players.
