After a long hiatus since NCAA Football 14, College Football 25 is the anticipated return of EA Sports' popular video game series based on American college football. EA EA Sports created a college football video game, and real schools ran the hyperbolic time chamber during this spell of "amateurism." Sounds good!

Key Features

Fast-Paced Game Play: College Football 25 also introduces its fast-paced, unique college football body of gameplay style. On-field, the most significant changes come in the form of a revised passing system, which gives users more agency and variety with their throws than ever before..

Campus IQ Gameplay Feature Set: Introducing a control for Player Health & Fatigue, this requires players to strategically rotate backups at different positions or utilize drastically varied play calling to sustain player effectiveness throughout the game. Adding another level of reality, every hit affects how the player can perform.

Field Advantage: The title features a home-field advantage system, meaning the visiting squad may find it tougher to pull off plays when entering another team's stadium.

Graphics and Presentation: College Football 25 utilizes the Frostbite engine to deliver stunning graphics, complete with realistic player movements that emote a range of emotions on game day, from campus heroics to disappointment in defeat to authentic crowd feedback.

Dynasty Mode: This feature is the equivalent of EA Sports NCCA Football series' Dynasty mode. In this mode, you take control of a college football program and recruit players to come play for your school so that you can win championships. Commenter posts suggest that the off-field experience in this mode is bordering on incomplete and does not go far enough to provide a proper depth of information when compared with other offerings.

Overall Gameplay Experience

The game features dynamic player celebrations, crowds, and team-specific content to keep the contested environment lively. The on-field play is universally praised for its feel, flow, and responsiveness, but certain off-field aspects could be improved upon in future updates.

PS4 Compatibility

Availability on PS4

College Football 25 is not on the PS4. It will be released exclusively for next-generation consoles, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S|X on the PC. This move is in line with EA Sports' newly formed habit of moving to next-generation hardware to fully embrace the latest graphics and gameplay possibilities.

Platforms Available

Right now, College Football 25 will be at

PlayStation 5
Xbox Series S|X
PC

This focus on next-gen platforms would allow EA Sports to include more advanced graphics, game mechanics, and online features that simply would not exist on a PS4.

Game Performance and Graphics Quality

What to expect on PS5

Enhancements will be added to use the full capabilities of the PS5 hardware and make it prettier with higher-resolution textures, faster load times, and smoother FPS.

While playing, most of the feedback you will get comes through Dual Sense. Still, it would be interesting to know if those fans will support any new improvements, like creating optimized schemes on PS5, which is common, or if they even affect haptics because all we see in the footage is purely push animations.

Final Assessment

If you have a PS4, it's best to upgrade to the PS5 version or investigate options where available on other platforms. College Football 25 is well worth the investment for college football video game enthusiasts who have adopted next-gen consoles courtesy of upgrades to graphics and gameplay mechanics. Die-hard fans may want to switch to next-gen gaming if they want the latest and greatest version of College Football 25.
