EA Sports Reveals College Basketball Game for 2028

EA Sports has announced the return of its college basketball video game franchise, with a working title of 'EA Sports College Basketball' and a planned release in 2028. The game will not be titled NCAA Basketball, but the NCAA will participate as a licensing partner. The series was last released in 2009 and discontinued due to legal issues over player likenesses, but new NIL rules now allow athletes to be included and compensated. The game will feature both men's and women's teams. The revival follows the record-breaking success of EA Sports College Football 25, which demonstrated strong fan demand for college sports video games. Further details on gameplay and licensing are expected to be released in the future.
