Georgia Tech Officially Announces Their Inclusion in EA Sports College Football 25 Video Game
One of the most anticipated events of the summer (at least for college football fans) will be the release of EA Sports College Football 25. EA has not released a game in over a decade, but that is changing this summer. There has been new information leaking out about the new game in the past month or so and for Yellow Jackets fans, Georgia Tech officially confirmed it would be in the game today.
All 134 FBS teams are going to be in the game this summer.
ESPN's Michael Rothstein had some interesting details he released today about the upcoming game:
"There will be name, image and likeness components in the Dynasty and Road to Glory modes. Dynasty is where you take over a college football program; Road to Glory involves guiding an individual player through their college career.
"If you think about representing what's happening in the sport, when we talk about things like Dynasty and Road to Glory, there's new ways to recruit, there's transfer portals, there's NIL, there's a lot of things to think about," said Daryl Holt, EA Sports' senior vice president and group general manager of EA Tiburon. "That has really added to the complexity and the intrigue of the sport that we want to make sure is there for our players."
EA Sports said all 134 FBS teams will be in the game, as will the 12-team College Football Playoff and every bowl game.
Holt said customization will be allowed because, in reality, we've seen the college landscape change enough that one never knows how that will occur. It's not clear how much customization and what, exactly, that will look like.
One thing that will not be customizable: If a player chooses to not be included in the game, he will not be able to be created in the game by users -- although Holt wouldn't say how they would prevent that, only that it will not be allowed.
Holt said the focus is FBS for Year 1, but they're "expecting adding to this project and program" as they go forward. In other words -- 134 teams, 10 FBS conferences and the Heisman Trophy will all be there. Just not the lower levels of football, such as FCS.
Yet."
