As fans wait for more information on EA Sports College Football 25, a recent leak of the game's cover art and deluxe edition was discovered by multiple users on social media. The leak included the appearance of several athletes on the cover of EA Sports College Football 25, and a screenshot seemingly taken in-game that featured one of the 134 Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) teams confirmed for the franchise's return.
Following its hiatus in 2014, the fate of the College Football series was in limbo for years. However, the US Supreme Court ruled in NCAA v. Alston in 2021 that college athletes across every division could earn an income based on their name, image, and likeness (NIL). While the Supreme Court case was being deliberated, EA Sports confirmed in February 2021 that College Football would return. Three years later, EA Sports revealed several details about College Football 25 and confirmed that all 134 FBS schools would be playable. In addition, ESPN's Chris Fowler and Kirk Herbstreit confirmed that they would serve as the game's commentary team, with Herbstreit reprising his role as a color commentator from previous entries.
Though no release date for EA Sports College Football 25 has been confirmed by EA Sports, an important part of the game has made the rounds on social media. According to sources including Gematsu on Twitter, the PlayStation Store page of EA Sports College Football 25 revealed the Deluxe Edition cover early. According to the posted screenshots, several athletes from various FBS programs were featured, with their backs turned toward the camera as they marched out of a stadium tunnel. Three of the game's cover athletes are Texas QB Quinn Ewers, Michigan RB Donovan Edwards, and Colorado CB/WR Travis Hunter. No price information was given for the College Football 25 Deluxe Edition.

In February 2024, EA Sports confirmed that College Football 25 will have a 120 FPS option on the Xbox Series X version as a performance mode option. Under the standard graphics option, the game will be capped at 60 FPS.
It remains to be seen if the PS5 version will follow suit. With the return of EA Sports College Football 25 seemingly imminent, only time will tell what other EA Sports franchises will make a comeback.
