College Football 26: Latest News, Release Date and Rumours
EA Sport’s College Football is set to return after the roaring success of last years iteration with College Football 26.
CF26 will be just the second College Football game in a decade, and fans have high hopes that it will build upon the momentum the franchise appears to have garnered over the past year.
The game is set for a summer release, coming a week earlier than many anticipated.
New Features and Fan Rumours
What we know so far is that the usual fan-favourite modes will return including Road to Glory, Dynasty and Ultimate Team as well as the casual game for fans wanting a quick hit of adrenaline without committing to a full mode.
As of yet, no major changes have been made to these modes, meaning that players familiar with the 25 version of the game can hop straight in.
EA’s marketing has revolved around the slogan “from high school recruit to NFL Legend”, while the exact implications of this is unknown, it sounds like the scope of the game is set to widen significantly with some high school games available, similarly to the MyCareer mode in EA’s sister title NBA 2k25.
Not only might the game go back, it may also feature some form of progression to the NFL, sprouting fan theories that the game may feature some crossover with the upcoming Madden NFL 26 game.
College Football 26: Deluxe Edition and Release Date
CF26 is set to launch on Playstation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, with no sight of a PC or Switch/Switch 2 version, disappointing fans who may have hoped the game would expand to new consoles.
This does however follow the trend of last years game, which also only released on Xbox and PlayStation.
On release fans will be able to purchase two versions of the game or a bundle deal. The Standard Edition is set for a $69.99 price tag, with the Deluxe coming in at $99.99.
The Deluxe Edition comes with some interesting perks, including three-days early access, 4,600 CUT points (in-game currency), two Ultimate Team packs and additional Road to Glory skill points.
The Deluxe Edition can also be bought in a bundle alongside Madden NFL 26 in a move set to delight American football fans and offering a steal for the two games.
Publishers EA Sport have announced that the game is set to be released across all platforms on July 10, allowing summer sports fans to get stuck in with early access starting July 7.
