Kickoff has been delayed for many in College Football 25, mainly because the game is already such a big success with its early access launch.
Just minutes after the game went live for its early access period and 10-hour trial for EA Play subscribers, some players reported having issues even getting past the main menu thanks to server overload.
“It’s a full house in here,” the message said. “Give us some time to make some room.”
What’s most impressive about the servers being at capacity already is that the game isn’t even fully officially out yet. The full launch is this Friday, but today is only for those who pre-ordered the $100 or $150 (bundled with Madden NFL 25) versions of the game, or sub to EA Play and have access to 10 hours of the full title.
It’s been over a decade since the last college football game, NCAA Football 14, last released. It’s clear to see that the hunger of college football fans is palpable, ready as ever to get online and play in modes like Road to Glory, Dynasty, or even Ultimate Team.
This is a breaking news story and it’s currently being written in real time.
