To commemorate this highly anticipated release, 5430 Alliance will host a launch party on July 19 at the University Memorial Center on campus, featuring a Madden-style tournament opportunity for fans and gamers to compete against some of their favorite CU Football players.
This event promises an afternoon filled with fandom, camaraderie and competition as gaming enthusiasts and football fans come together to experience the renaissance of college football gaming.

“We are thrilled to commemorate the launch of College Football 25' and provide our student-athletes with a platform to showcase their gaming talents," expressed Natalie Sharp, Executive Director at 5430 Alliance. "Highlighting one of our own student-athletes on the game's cover is incredibly special, and this release is an exciting opportunity to celebrate the evolving landscape of NIL opportunities. Fans can look forward to competing against familiar faces from the game, bridging the gap between virtual gaming and real-world athletics in a uniquely enjoyable experience."
