New trailer for EA Sports College Football announces a summer release

A new teaser trailer for EA Sports College Football has announced that the game will be released in the summer.

The trailer, which addresses comments from the fanbase suggesting the game will never actually happen, states that a full reveal will take place in May.

During an earnings call last August, EA CEO Andrew Wilson said the game had “made some incredible progress”.

He added: “The team’s doing an incredible job building out what will be the future of College Football. Gameplay is really coming together, and really capturing all the action of pageantry, and the difference in college football versus the NFL. I feel really confident in what the team’s doing.

“We’re working through the licence situation broadly – as of now, we’ve got many if not most of the schools licensed as part of our licensing platform.

“We’ll continue to work with the various governing bodies of the sport in the country, and some key third-party partners we have, around how and when to include college athletes themselves into the game, and we’ll work very closely with them.
