EA Sports College Football 25 Shatters Sales Records

The game's massive success highlights ongoing issues with player compensation and EA's financial performance.

'College Football 25' generated $500 million in revenue within two weeks of release.
Over 5 million unique players engaged with the game in its first week, excluding trial users.
Despite the game's success, athletes received only $600 each, raising concerns about fair compensation.
EA's overall Q1 financials showed a 30% drop in net profit, but exceeded expectations with $1.26 billion in net bookings.
The launch has set high expectations for EA's upcoming titles, including Madden NFL 25 and Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
