Experience the development… like you are really going from nobody to superstar in shining lights. From a franchise building from the bottom to a top champion caliber team.
Plus the vibes are elite. Every school’s traditions are honored. Songs and chants are included. Bask in the energy from crowds of REAL people screaming and mascots shaking and acting all the way up. By the way, there’s 50 total mascots in the game including 40 Team Mascots and 10 real animals representing their schools. So then, the school magic shall be off the charts.
But the athlete POV is just as captivating. As you fully embrace the emotions of running out the tunnel. Nervousness. Excitement. Ready to take on your opponent and dominate. The tantalizing essence of your teammates emitting all around you. All thanks to an up close and personal camera style throughout the game.
Nevertheless, one aspect we also appreciate is the growing fanbase. You may begin with little support, emptier seats and with less cheers. But start winning… and prepare to get the LOVE! The ultimate “if you build it they will come” moment. Do well and expect more crowds and deafening cheers.
But don’t just take our word for it. The developers (Christian Brandt and dev team); also wish to share details about some of the work that went into this latest, long-awaited title. They reveal,
Welcome back to the Campus Huddle, your home for news and information about EA Sports College Football 25, straight from the developers!
Picture this, you are playing as Penn State getting ready to take on your opponent. This all starts with your team running out of the tunnel to Zombie Nation blasting and the whole stadium chanting “We Are Penn State”.
We recreated that feeling, sound, and visuals of pre-game as if you are down on the field with them. There is nothing like it and we wanted to make sure that you could experience the same feeling that these players have when you are walking out as your favorite team.
Motion capture was the key to ensuring the accuracy and detail of all the props from historical items to the brand new traditions of gameday. Every prop was built to its accurate size and weight then mocapped in a studio, allowing real people to interact with them. Simply using a stand-in object would not replicate authenticity.
Not only do we have the classic school traditions in the game, but the “New Era” of traditions including Turnover and Touchdown props made it into the game as well. All this action takes place during gameplay and examples of what you might see are chainsaws, championship belts, basketball hoops, and even a THRONE!
