College Football 25 is a welcome return for college American Football to the video game world. The pageantry, the theatrics, and the unbridled passion associated with college football are alive and well once more\u2014thanks to College Football 25. It's considered an entirely different beast from EA's Madden franchise, with new mechanics and core principles. However, one thing similar is the idea of tailored difficulty levels, and you need to know the ins and outs. Every College Football 25 difficulty level There are four difficulty levels in College Football 25: Freshman, Varsity, All-American, and Heisman. I'm sure you have already guessed the difficulty associated with each setting, but if not, here's an easy way of identifying each one using our bespoke system: Freshman: Easy Varsity: Normal All-American: Hard Heisman: Very Hard Freshman This is the standard beginner's mode for those who are completely unfamiliar with the world of video games, anyone under or over a certain age who has trouble understanding controllers and inputs, or an individual learning the world of American Football. The AI is very gentle, scoring Touchdowns is like taking candy from a baby, and defending isn't too difficult. Varsity Moving up to Varsity in College Football 25 is for those starting to feel confident in their understanding of mechanics and are looking for increased difficulty. Expect the computer to be more resilient. Additionally, don't be surprised if you're not scoring a touchdown with every drive and the AI is throwing out inventive plays to break your line. All-American All-American is likely the cutting-off point for even hardened College Football 25 fans. This difficulty requires you to have an extensive knowledge of the playbook, know when to throw a Slant, when to call a Shotgun, and more importantly\u2014how to defend. You have to be fully coherent and fluent in both arts with All-American; otherwise, scoring points is an issue, and opposition teams mercilessly hit you with multiple-play drives\u2014or both. Heisman Heisman is borderline unfair. In the same way that EA FC players struggle with Ultimate difficulty or Madden players with All-Madden, Heisman requires utmost precision, concentration, and great skill to stand a chance. The AI is practically flawless and can telepathically read every play you cook up, intercept you, and carve through you like a hot knife through butter. This is for those who want the hardest challenge possible.

College Football 25 is a welcome return for college American Football to the video game world. The pageantry, the theatrics, and the unbridled passion associated with college football are alive and well once more\u2014thanks to College Football 25. It's considered an entirely different beast from EA's Madden franchise, with new mechanics and core principles. However, one thing similar is the idea of tailored difficulty levels, and you need to know the ins and outs. Every College Football 25 difficulty level There are four difficulty levels in College Football 25: Freshman, Varsity, All-American, and Heisman. I'm sure you have already guessed the difficulty associated with each setting, but if not, here's an easy way of identifying each one using our bespoke system: Freshman: Easy Varsity: Normal All-American: Hard Heisman: Very Hard Freshman This is the standard beginner's mode for those who are completely unfamiliar with the world of video games, anyone under or over a certain age who has trouble understanding controllers and inputs, or an individual learning the world of American Football. The AI is very gentle, scoring Touchdowns is like taking candy from a baby, and defending isn't too difficult. Varsity Moving up to Varsity in College Football 25 is for those starting to feel confident in their understanding of mechanics and are looking for increased difficulty. Expect the computer to be more resilient. Additionally, don't be surprised if you're not scoring a touchdown with every drive and the AI is throwing out inventive plays to break your line. All-American All-American is likely the cutting-off point for even hardened College Football 25 fans. This difficulty requires you to have an extensive knowledge of the playbook, know when to throw a Slant, when to call a Shotgun, and more importantly\u2014how to defend. You have to be fully coherent and fluent in both arts with All-American; otherwise, scoring points is an issue, and opposition teams mercilessly hit you with multiple-play drives\u2014or both. Heisman Heisman is borderline unfair. In the same way that EA FC players struggle with Ultimate difficulty or Madden players with All-Madden, Heisman requires utmost precision, concentration, and great skill to stand a chance. The AI is practically flawless and can telepathically read every play you cook up, intercept you, and carve through you like a hot knife through butter. This is for those who want the hardest challenge possible.
