EA Sports College Football Reportedly Releasing in July of 2023 - Other Interesting Information Revealed
EA Sports College Football could be released in July of 2023 if internal documentation from the CLC obtained by Extra Points’ Matt Brown is accurate.
When EA announced the return of College Football last month, they mentioned more information would be released, as development progressed in the next couple of years. So really, this isn’t too surprising and EA hasn’t confirmed anything as of yet.
Here are some of the details that were previously revealed.
- Deliver authentic college football experiences and the high quality gameplay that fans have long loved in college football games from EA Sports
- Through the CLC partnership, the franchise will include the rights to more than 100 institutions featuring the logos, stadiums, uniforms, gameday traditions and more that fans have come to know and love
- While this college game will not include student-athlete names, images and likenesses, EA Sports is continuing to watch those developments closely
Notre Dame previously announced they will not be part of EA Sports College Football until name, image and likeness (NIL) rules have been finalized. Here’s the official quote from University Vice President, Jack Swarbrick and Director of Athletics, James E. Rohr.
“Notre Dame Athletics welcomes the return of EA Sports College Football, a video game series that has historically helped promote interest in college football. Notre Dame will not, however, participate in the game until such time as rules have been finalized governing the participation of our student-athletes.
As those rules are developed, it is our strong desire that student-athletes be allowed to benefit directly from allowing their name, image and performance history to be used in the game.”
Northwestern, Tulane and Fresno State have made similar announcements. NIL rules will be in place well before EA Sports College Football is released, so any team that makes a similar announcement will have plenty of time to make a decision to be part of the game.

Matt posted an article on Extra Points this morning, providing more information, from the proposal the CLC sent to FBS institutions, in regards to EA Sports College Football. It’s a paid article, so please refrain from just copying and pasting the entire article here.
He points out potential DLC and other game features that could be included.

There has been a lot written about EA Sports College Football so far, which is why we’re putting together this EA Sports College Football FAQ. NCAA Football 14 came out in 2013, so we’re in year seven of a college football drought. Things like College Football Revamped and the amazing roster editors here at OS keep that game alive to this day — and should be applauded for helping to show EA and game publishers overall there is still an unquenchable thirst for college sports games — but the masses have been hankering for something new for years now.
