EA Sports College Football 25 is almost here and fans are chomping at the bit for the release of the beloved game making its return after almost a decade.

The last time an EA Sports College Football game was released was back in 2013 when EA Sports College Football 2014 came out. The long hiatus of the game has made the release of the new one even more special as this game will allow both players and schools to make a good amount of money off of the game.

EA Sports has known what it is doing since the tease of the game came back in November 2022. Ever since fans have been waiting and waiting and waiting. Finally, EA Sports gave fans something, they released who would be in the game, which players were planning to opt into the game, the cover are for the game, and finally the release date.

Now it has been released what each program will be making off the game and the numbers might surprise you.

The way the game has portioned out how much each school will make is based on a point system. That point system is based on the number of times each program finished in the top 25 polls.

Here is the breakdown of points for each tier:
- Tier 1: 6-10 points
- Tier 2: 2-5 points
- Tier 3: 1 point
- Tier 4: 0 points

Wisconsin finds itself in the second tier finishing in the top 25 five times in the last 10 years, which means they were just one short of being in the top tier and making an extra almost $40,000 off the video game. The Badgers are set to almost $60,000 for their participation in the game, which is not bad, but imagine just one more season and you could have made more.

When will EA Sports College Football 25 be released?

EA Sports College Football 25 is set to be released on July 19 after a long wait. The game will be available for PlayStation and Xbox devices with the participation of all 134 FBS programs and players that opted in using their NIL.
