After more than 15 years away, EA Sports has announced it’s returning to the world of college basketball games. A new entry in the series is coming, and it’ll be the first since 2009’s NCAA Basketball ’10.
This is just the latest revival from EA Sports, as the company brought back its college football series in 2024 with College Football 25. That game made more than $1 billion in revenue, so it’s hardly a surprise to see EA want to capitalize on the hype and try its hand with another college sports revival.
“Bring the Madness. Let’s run it back,” EA said in its announcement, referring to March Madness. EA did not provide any specifics at all, however, but that’s not totally unexpected. After all, when EA announced it was bringing its college football series back, it did so with a basic social media post first to get people excited before the company eventually shared more details.
