Best settings for College Football 25

EA College Football 25 gives players a bit of flexibility through different settings for passing, gameplay helpers for defense, and various camera options.

While the core experience is similar to Madden, you might be surprised by the game’s speed and how tricky tackling feels. Other features like Stadium Pulse and Wear and Tear also add to the difficult curve, so it’s ideal to have the best settings possible.

Without further ado, here are our suggestions for the best settings in College Football 25.

Best College Football 25 passing settings

• Passing Type: Placement & Accuracy
• Passing Showdown: Off
• Pass Lead Increase: Small
• Reticle Speed: 16
• Reticle Visibility: User Only
• Meter Visibility: User Only

Placement & Accuracy is the best Passing Type since it allows you to throw more precise passes and control the power through visual targets. Alternatively, you can try out Revamped Passing, which places a bar on top of the receiver, letting you take some power off the throw and even delay the release if needed.

Another important setting is the Placement Reticle Speed. This could boil down to personal preference since some players prefer it to be slower, but we found 16 to be an ideal spot.

Best defense settings in College Football 25

• Auto Flip Defensive Play Call: On
• Defensive Ball Hawk: On
• Defensive Heat Seeker Assist: On
• Defensive Heat Seeker Window Size: 100%
• Defensive Switch Assist: Off
• Controlled Player Art: Off
• Coach Mode: Off

Catching runners has been difficult for many players in College Football 25 so you’ll want to turn on the Defensive Heat Seeker Assist.

This option steers user-controlled defenders toward ball carriers, giving you a better chance at nailing those tackles while you come to grips with the game’s mechanics. You can find all these options under the ‘Gameplay Helpers’ section in the settings menu.

Best camera settings

• Camera Toggle: On
• Passing Cam: On
• Offense Camera Settings: Standard
• Defense Camera Settings: Standard

Standard is the way to go as far as camera settings are concerned. This option gives you the best view of the field in both pre-play and after the snap. With that said, it’s worth trying out other options if you’re looking for alternatives. The camera settings can be found under ‘Visual Feedback’ in the settings menu.
