Draft Day Sports: College Football 26 First Access Begins on August 1

Draft Day Sports: College Football 26 First Access starts this Friday, August 1, giving players an early chance to dive into the game. This year, the game brings you even closer to life on the sidelines.

While you can still choose to be a head coach, you now have the option to begin your journey as a coordinator or position coach and work your way up the ranks. Team chemistry plays a bigger role than ever, directly impacting execution and performance in key moments. 

Play analysis tools help break down what’s working and why, while adaptive AI keeps things fresh by adjusting strategies based on what’s trending across the league. The visual side gets a boost too with an upgraded animated game view and players can choose between building a program in the top division or exploring an all-new lower division setup.

For a deeper look at what’s new, check out the video below and the full blog at the official website.
