Electronic Arts has shared a new trailer for EA Sports College Football 25. It explores various details of how the sports game works.
The new title marks the return of the old NCAA Football series, which has been in hiatus for 11 years. Now fans of gridiron football will have the chance to dive into it again.
It’ll feature 134 FBS schools, and four modes. Dynasty has players assume the role of a coach, while Road to Glory puts us in an athlete’s shoes trying to become the best.
Meanwhile, Road to the College Football Playoff is a brand new online format, and College Football Ultimate Team allows you to make the team you want for matches.
The new video explores the CampusIQ technology, which EA points as a major evolution for EA Sports College Football 25.
CampusIQ is a set of new systems, which includes Wear & Tear, Player Abilities, Homefield Advantage, and Unique Playbooks. These elements should help differentiating it from Madden NFL.
Wear & Tear is a sort of health system that players should take into account when planning substitutions. Every hit matters in the field and may impact performance, so it’s important to pay attention to the athletes’ conditions.
Different athletes will have different abilities to consider as well. Some of them may be more resistant to Wear & Tear, while others may get boosts to their attributes.
Homefield Advantage will impact the visiting team’s morale. It has a chance of disorienting their athletes, making snap decisions harder to pull.
The EA Sports College Football 25 video also showcases the various playstyles of the teams, and the revamped passing system, which should provide more control to players.
EA Sports College Football 25 is coming to PlayStation 5 on July 19, 2024.
