After the triumphant return of College Football to the sports gaming lineup last year, EA is of course making the game into an annual release, just like every other sports game on the market. EA SPORTS College Football 26 will be hitting stores and digital storefronts July 10th, well ahead of the start of the actual college season kickoff in late August.
While there is a larger game reveal planned for tomorrow, details are already starting to filter out about this year's iteration, such as the release date and cover stars. Celebrating it's "sophomore" season this year, this game's cover stars are set to be two sophomore standout wide receivers - Alabama's Ryan Williams and Jeremiah Smith of THE Ohio State University. The Deluxe Edition however is going for a collage of college legends, coaches, mascots, and other standout players.
Pre-orders are now on for EA SPORTS College Football 26, including the MVP Bundle which pairs the college game along with a copy of Madden 26 and a bunch of in-game goodies for Ultimate Team as well as 3 day early access at release time.
