Until 2013, EA Sports was developing its NCAA Football series, dedicated to the theme of American college football. After the premiere of NCAA Football 14, the series was put "on the shelf". This is when the publisher focused on the development of the thematically related Madden NFL brand. In 2024, the company decided to return to college competitions, releasing EA Sports College Football 25. This started a new brand, and a year later it saw the sequel described here, titled EA Sports College Football 26.

Final Weapon: 3.5 / 5 by Noah Hunter

EA Sports College Football 26 brings quality improvements that build nicely upon the foundation laid by last year's release. No upgrades are revolutionary, but they don't necessarily need to be. However, bugs and a lack of quality tutorials leave some to be desired. Regardless, for college football fans, this is still the ultimate experience to bring game days with you anytime, anywhere.

Shacknews: 8 / 10 by Donovan Erskine

Despite my shaky feelings on some of the core modes, College Football 26 is a marked improvement over College Football 25. I got a lot out of the smaller changes, like the new Dynamic Substitutions and supplementary Dynasty features. It’s yet to be seen if this franchise will fall into the cynical rinse and repeat pattern that Madden has been on for several years now, but for the time being, it’s more CFB goodness.

WayTooManyGames: 7.5 / 10 by Jordan Hawes

College Football 26 may not be the perfect football sim, but it is really close to being great. While there is a ton of content to sink into, there is still more QoL for each mode I’d like to see. Starting off by at least offering a an optional quick training mode at start or find a more dynamic way to offer insight during the modes so you know what to do.
