EA Sports' last college football video game, "NCAA Football '14," was released in 2013 featuring Michigan's Denard Robinson on the cover before name, image and likeness disputes between the NCAA and EA Sports took the series off the market.
The video game company posted in February 2021, months before the NCAA officially adopted its groundbreaking NIL policy, that its college football series would return.
With NIL in place, real players can opt in to be part of the new game. OneTeam Partners is handling the group licensing for the game, though player compensation has not yet been finalized.
