Could a college basketball video game be returning in the near future? Fans are speculating following a post from EA Sports on Monday.
Thanks to NIL and players being able to be paid at the collegiate level, EA Sports was able to bring back its iconic college football video game last year. Now, it appears they may be doing the same for its college basketball video game. EA Sports posted on its official X account on Monday a picture of a basketball with their logo and a simple message:
“Bring the Madness. Let’s run it back. #CBB #ItsInTheGame”
Here’s the official post:
The post instantly garnered positive feedback from college hoops fans, with many already jumping to the conclusion that EA Sports will be bringing back the college basketball game as well. EA Sports last had a college basketball game in 2009 so it’s been a longer layoff for hoops compared to football — which last had a game in 2013 prior to last summer.
We will keep an eye out for any true announcement from EA Sports. But it certainly seems like you will be able to play as the Spartans at the Breslin Center in the near future. What great news should this actually happen.
