As a classic video simulation sports game series, College Football, like other similar series, has been suspended or changed due to non-game issues such as image rights. But honestly, as a player, you may only care about what kind of game experience you can get.
Since EA CFB 25 returned to the players’ vision last year, the overall development trend of the game has been stable and positive, so you may also be looking forward to the performance of CFB 26 nearly a year after its launch-the good news is that its launch date has been confirmed!
Based on this, we will bring you a preview of College Football 26 based on the currently known information.

When Will The Game Be Officially Released?
According to official news, EA College Football 26 plans to release its standard edition on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S platforms on July 10 this year, and like last year’s 25, it will provide a 3-day early access period - provided that you get Deluxe edition.
It is worth noting that although CFB 25 is only available on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, this does not mean that 26 will not be available on other platforms. Since the launch of Nintendo Switch 2 this year is also very eye-catching, perhaps you can look forward to it.
What Changes Will Happen To The Gameplay And Mode?
If you want to get your favorite players in NCAA 26, you must win in different modes of the game to earn College Football 26 coins before you can redeem players. Therefore, it can be said that the changes in gameplay determine how you will accumulate coins.
Unfortunately, there is currently little specific information about the game, and neither new features nor improved mechanisms have been announced. But according to the initial trailer and the brief description known, CFB 26 will be centered on Road to Glory.
This mode requires you to play as a college athlete and balance academic, social and personal brand management while making a name for yourself in campus competitions, enriching your CFB college life in all aspects.
However, in College Football 26, it is expected that the mode will focus more on player development and the recruiting process than in the past, and provide you with a more realistic draft experience. After all, as a football video game, it should still be centered on sports gameplay.
In addition, although no relevant news has been leaked, Ultimate Team and Dynasty, which are also core modes, should also receive corresponding adjustments like Road to Glory.
At least according to the reaction of the player community, many people hope to see the addition of NIL integration, expansion of the coaching team, formation substitutions and other functions in Dynasty of CFB 26, and it would be best to improve the data and record tracking of this mode.

What Does EA CFB 26 Cover Character Represent?
Like last year, CUT 26 released a preliminary trailer and the cover character of the game before the game was officially launched. If you just like to enjoy the fun of sports in the game, you may not realize what this means, but for fans, who would not want the player they support to appear on the cover?
On Tuesday, CFB 26 showed you its standard edition cover players, Alabama’s wide receiver Ryan Williams and Ohio State’s wide receiver Jeremiah Smith, and it is expected that Deluxe edition cover will also include other players, coaches and mascots.
In fact, as early as March of this year, you may have seen the behind-the-scenes photos of the cover shooting on social media. Although there are many players in it, at least you have initially determined the range of possible cover characters.
It is worth noting that the other players on the cover of College Football 26 Deluxe edition should include several star former players who have appeared on the cover in the past, which is the same as CFB 25.
Normally, the cover players are star players who performed well in the past season. Ryan Williams completed 48 receptions, 865 yards, and 8 receiving touchdowns in his freshman season to help the team beat Georgia and win.
As a core player of Buckeyes, Jeremiah Smith completed 48 receptions for 865 yards and eight receiving touchdowns in College Football Playoff quarterfinals, helping his team defeat Oregon.
