At long last, college football is returning the world of video games. EA Sports College Football 25 is set to release on July 19, and preorders are available now at major retailers. You can preorder the standard edition of EA Sports College Football 25 for $70 at Amazon, Best Buy, and GameStop. Meanwhile, Walmart has an exclusive edition for PS5 and Xbox Series X that comes with a steelbook case. A couple of digital-only editions are available on the PlayStation Store and Xbox Store. Ordering any version early will net you some neat in-game bonuses.
Football fans have been starving for a new college football sim since NCAA Football 14 released back in 2013. Over a decade later, dinner will soon be served. Unlike Madden NFL 25, EA’s new college football game will not be available on last-gen PlayStation and Xbox consoles. Nor will you be able to play it on PC. To return to the collegiate gridiron, you’ll need to own either a PS5 or Xbox Series X|S.
If you need a PS5, Walmart has the Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 PS5 Slim bundle in stock for $449 (valued at $560). Alternatively, you can buy an Xbox Series X bundled with Diablo 4 for $470 at Walmart.
