EA Sports unveils trailer for 'College Football 25' video game – NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth

The trailer arrives just over two months before the game's official release on July 19th. Fans can pre-order the game on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.

“College Football 25” is EA Sports' first NCAA football game since 2013. The company canceled its “NCAA Football” series after lawsuits accused the company of using players' likenesses without paying them. The door for a new college football game opened in 2021 when the NCAA agreed to allow players to profit from their name, image and likeness.

The new game will include 134 FBS schools. More than 11,000 players accepted EA Sports' offer of $600 and a copy of the game in exchange for using their likeness.

EA Sports created further hype for the game on Thursday when it revealed the covers for the standard and deluxe editions. Colorado two-way player Travis Hunter, Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers and Michigan running back Donovan Edwards stand side by side on the standard cover and with a group of other college stars on the deluxe cover.

In addition to a trailer, EA Sports also shared additional information about the gameplay and modes on Friday.

“EA SPORTS College Football is BACK! “We have felt the passion and anticipation of college football fans every step of the way since we first announced this game, and we are thrilled to finally be able to show everyone what we have built,” said Daryl Holt, SVP and Group GM of EA Sports. “'College Football 25' is built with authenticity at its core, inspired by the experiences our fans have loved at our games, and has been fully developed to reflect modern college football – all of which is reflected in the sights, sounds and Immerse yourself in originality – lifelong gameplay of the sport they love.”
