The video game EA Sports College Football 27 was officially released by Electronic Arts on July 9, 2026. The cover of this edition features three well-known college football talents. From left to right: Dante Moore – quarterback for the University of Oregon, Malachi Toney – wide receiver for the University of Miami, and Kewan Lacy – running back for the University of Mississippi/Ole Miss.
The campaign was post-produced by ONE HUNDRED BERLIN, a world-leading studio for high-end image editing, CGI, and post-production, based in Berlin.
They handled the final compositing and visual enhancement of the cover artwork. Under the creative direction of Matt Luckhurst (Co-Founder & ECD The New Company), ONE HUNDRED BERLIN ensured that the photos of the real-life college stars blended seamlessly with the graphic and CGI effects in the background.
The second campaign image features Curt Cignetti, head coach of the Indiana University Hoosiers football team. He earned this prominent spot after an incredible record-breaking season, leading the Indiana Hoosiers to a perfect season and their first-ever national championship in the college football playoffs.
This appearance marks a historic moment for the gaming franchise, as he is the first individual coach since the 1990s to grace the cover of a college football game.
Alongside him are some of the most talented and well-known stars of current college football: Jayden Maiava (USC Trojans) – The University of Southern California quarterback can be seen in the background. Colin Simmons (Texas Longhorns) – The Longhorns' defensive star brings his athleticism to the group photo. Leonard Moore (Notre Dame Fighting Irish) – The cornerback represents the renowned South Bend defense. Cam Coleman (Auburn Tigers) – The spectacular wide receiver also joins the cover lineup.
GoSee Gaming Verdict: With EA SPORTS College Football 27, the virtual stadium atmosphere reaches a whole new level. The revamped graphics engine captures dynamic weather changes – from the first snowflakes to the dense blizzard in the fourth quarter – with breathtaking realism. Paired with the completely revamped Dynasty mode, the game is a visual and strategic masterpiece for every sports fan.
College Football 27 delivers exactly what the community has been asking for: more depth, smart passing mechanics, and the triumphant return of the chaotic "Mascot Mashup" mode with over 100 playable mascots. The game brings the pure energy of a Saturday night game right into your living room.
