Summary
EA Sports has released a Gameplay Deep Dive forCollege Football 25, giving fans their most comprehensive look yet at how the game will work when it launches on July 19. College football fans have been waiting over a decade for a new college football game, with copies of the last game in the series,NCAA Football 14, going for ridiculous prices online. Soon, the wait for a brand-new college football experience will be over thanks toEA Sports College Football 25.
Developed by EA Orlando,EA Sports College Football 25is specifically targeting new-gen consoles, with some of the popular features from theNCAAseries carrying over. Fan favorite features like Dynasty andRoad to Gloryare making a comeback, so the experience should be familiar to longtime fans, but with major enhancements that take advantage of the horsepower behind the PS5 and Xbox Series X consoles. The new Gameplay Deep Dive, hosted by Ohio State’s Kirk Herbstreit, shows off just what else fans can expect fromCollege Football 25.
One of the major new features discussed in theCollege Football 25Gameplay Deep Dive is Wear and Tear. The idea behind Wear and Tear is that it givesCollege Football 25"an unprecedented level of realism" that is meant to mimic “the real-world effects of fatigue and damage” on college football players. The example given by EA is that if aCollege Football 25quarterback’s arm is damaged during a game, they will take a hit to their throwing ability. The damage done in any givenCollege Football 25game will carry over to the following week when playinggame modes like Dynasty, so Wear and Tear will add an extra layer of strategy to the proceedings.
