The game laid dormant since 2013, thanks to a big lawsuit that ended up causing big changes in the college sports world. But now, the wait is finally over. Thanks to some skull-cracking negotiations, current college football stars will have the option to give the green light for EA Sports to use their name, image, and likeness in the game. They’ll even get $600 and a free copy of the game! Let’s just say, it’s like hitting the jackpot!
But hold onto your football helmets, because the perks don’t stop there. Players who stick around in the game for multiple years will get paid annually, and even if they transfer teams, they’ll still get that sweet, sweet cash. It’s like the game creators are playing Santa Claus, delivering presents every year!
And wait for it, there’s more! Some can even make extra dough by promoting the game on social media and around campus. Cha-ching! But for those who say, “Nah, not interested,” well, they’ll be replaced in-game by a generic avatar. It feels a bit like being left out of the cool kids’ club, doesn’t it?
Now, here’s the real kicker: if a college football player decides not to throw their hat in the ring, a freaky hybrid of past players at their school could take their place. So, if a player from Alabama decides to sit this one out, get ready for a football Frankenstein made up of Tua Tagovialoa, Mac Jones, and Jalen Hurts. It’s like building a player in a video game, but in real life!
But hold onto your helmets, folks, here’s the grand finale: “EA Sports College Football 25” plans to have all 134 FBS schools in the game. That’s right, all 134! Sorry, Delaware Fightin’ Blue Hens – you’ll have to wait a bit, as you won’t make the cut until 2025. And not to worry, the game is set to be released this summer, with a “full reveal” of the game is coming in May. It’s like waiting for the grand opening of a new theme park, but with touchdowns instead of roller coasters!
So, buckle up, football fans, because EA Sports is about to bring the college football world to life in “EA Sports College Football 25!” It’s going to be like having years of Saturdays packed into one game.
