College Football 25 reveal trailer teases unreal gameplay experience

It’s almost here.

EA Sports has finally released the official trailer for its College Football 25 video game, to be released on July 19, and it was chock full of the college game day experience.

With superstitions, traditions, touchdown celebrations, marching bands and mascots, the long-awaited game looks to have it all.

The trailer starts with the pregame traditions and walkouts of Notre Dame, Boston College, University of Florida, and LSU and features many of the 134 FBS teams.

The whiteout game at Penn State, Pittsburgh’s marching band, Notre Dame’s leprechaun and tunnel sign and USC’s trojan mascot are all shown, just to name a few.

Alabama’s Jalen Milroe, UCLA’s T.J. Harden and Wyoming’s John Hoyland got solo shots in the trailer.

EA Sports previously announced Michigan’s back Donovan Edwards, Colorado’s Travis Hunter, and Texas’ Quinn Ewers would be the three cover athletes for the game, which is returning for the first time since the 2013-14 season.

ESPN announcer Chris Fowler provided the voice for the trailer, welcoming a new class of EA Sports college athletes to the virtual field.

“The eyes of the nation are on this field today and that’s what these players live for,” Fowler said.

Other ESPN announcers, Kirk Herbstreit, David Pollack, Jesse Palmer, Kevin Connors and Rece Davis all announced that they will be featured as well.

The video game developer teased the release of the game back in February with a video that addressed the “posts, predictions and doubts” surrounding College Football 25.

The game was dropped for over a decade over concerns — and high-profile lawsuits — of player likenesses.

EA Sports previously offered 11,000 Division I players $600 and a copy of the game on their preferred platform for their name, image and likeness (NIL) to appear in EA Sports College Football 25, according to multiple reports.

“We feel very proud that we’ll be the largest program, likely the highest-spending program,” EA Sports vice president of business development Sean O’Brien said to ESPN in February.

“And really an inclusive opportunity with an equitable distribution of funds across the board.”
