EA Sports College Football 25 Shatters Records with Over 5 Million Players in First Week

Back in the spotlight, EA Sports College Football 25 is making waves in the gaming community. The return of this beloved franchise by Electronic Arts was met with great anticipation. EA Sports College Football 25 quickly became one of the top pre-ordered games of the year. Its early access period alone saw over 2.2 million players diving into the game. Now, just a week later, the game continues to soar.

Electronic Arts recently released its financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2025. They not only reassured investors about the potential fallout from the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike affecting video game actors, but they also shared positive news regarding the sales performance of EA Sports College Football 25. In its first week, the game attracted over 5 million players, with 500,000 trying it out through the EA Play Trial service. This phenomenal engagement is set to bring in substantial revenue in future financial reports. Already, the current report has shown a net profit of $1.261 million, largely credited to the game's success.

Though American football may not be as widely followed on the other side of the Atlantic, the game's impressive launch raises the question of whether EA Sports College Football 25 can bridge cultural gaps and capture the interest of players globally.
