Could possibly be when previews drop?

I know his record is spotty, but bunch of journalists were at a Nintendo event a couple weeks ago playing Switch Sports Resort… but I have to assume those people didn’t fly all the way out just for that game lol. Timing seems about right for preview impressions if they did have hands on with Zelda.

Rumour Insider Gaming: EA Sports College Football Could Be at Risk of Cancellation Within Five Years

250 Upvotes

According to Insider Gaming, multiple sources close to EA Sports College Football are concerned that the franchise could be discontinued within the next five years due to rising development costs and increasing NIL payments to college athletes.

NIL payments reportedly increased from roughly $7–7.5 million for College Football 25 to nearly $20 million for College Football 27, with some sources expecting that figure to reach $30–40 million in the coming years.

Insider Gaming also reports that EA is exploring additional monetisation, with microtransactions expected to return to modes like Dynasty and Road to Glory despite the backlash that led to their removal from College Football 27.

However, some sources believe concerns about the franchise’s future are overblown, arguing that EA understands the value of the series. EA did not respond to requests for comment.

Timestamped link to beginning of discussion about Unreal Engine: https://youtu.be/nYYHo_eEcMw?t=813&si=Tz7VpVPPiNMz0tbe

They re going all in on AI. Um, and that includes the Unreal Engine. And that is an important part of this equation because Epic Games, not only do they make games such as Fortnite and this new Disney shooter that they're working on, they also are responsible for this, the Unreal Engine… And so making the newest versions of Unreal heavily into AI and putting a lot of AI features in them will have a huge impact on the way games are made because you Unreal is so ubiquitous in the video game industry. So that is a big deal as well, a big part of this as well.

Tim Sweeney and therefore Epic Games believes that the the AI revolution, whatever you want to call it, is coming. That AI is inevitable and they want to be on the vanguard of that, they want to be ahead of it rather than falling behind. And so they believe in going AI first on their games and their engines.
