The wait is finally over, college football fans. It’s time to take the field and school your rivals in College Football 25.
It’s been over 10 years since the last NCAA football game, but college ball is back. The new title launches in full on July 19 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, but you can get it in early access or even try out a 10-hour trial beforehand if you’re not convinced yet.
Here’s how to play the College Football 25 free trial demo.

The College Football 25 free trial is available as part of an EA Play subscription. It costs $5.99 to subscribe to the service for one month, and it can be canceled after the 10-hour trial is finished.
So, while the trial is called “free,” it’s only free if you have the subscription active, similar to how PlayStation Plus games are “free” only if you’re subscribed. In short, you can try out College Football 25 for about $6 to decide if you want to buy the full game.
