Okay, let’s talk about figuring out the size of CFB 25. It’s something I actually looked into recently because, you know, hard drive space is always a thing.

My Little Quest for the CFB 25 File Size
So, the other day, I got thinking about the upcoming College Football 25. Super excited, obviously. But then the practical side kicked in – how much space do I actually need to clear out for this beast? My console’s storage is constantly yelling at me.
First thing I did, like most folks probably, was just hop online. I punched things like “CFB 25 file size”, “College Football 25 GB size”, “how big is CFB 25 download” into the search bar. You know the drill.
Honestly, finding a straight, single answer right away wasn’t happening. Lots of forums, lots of speculation. Some people were throwing numbers around based on older NCAA games or Madden, but that’s just guessing, right? Not really solid.
Checking the Stores
My next step was to check the official spots. I fired up my console – I’ve got a PS5 – and went straight to the PlayStation Store. I searched for CFB 25, found the pre-order page, and started scanning for the details. Usually, they list the approximate size somewhere there.

- Looked at the main description.
- Checked the ‘details’ or ‘information’ section.
- Scrolled all the way down.
Sometimes it’s listed, sometimes it isn’t, especially before the pre-load goes live. I also thought about my buddies on Xbox, so I did a quick web search for the Xbox store page too, just to see if they had it listed differently. Seemed like the situation was similar over there – lots of game info, but the specific GB count was still a bit elusive or maybe just an estimate.
What I Pieced Together
After poking around for a bit, reading through different bits of info from the store pages and some gaming news sites that seemed somewhat credible (though you always take those with a grain of salt), I started to get a general idea. It wasn’t one exact number, like “53.7 GB” sharp. It seemed like most sources were pointing towards a size that’s pretty standard for big sports titles these days.
So, based on what I could gather from the store listings (even if preliminary) and general buzz, I landed on planning for something in the ballpark of around 50 to 60 Gigabytes. Give or take.
Keep in mind, this could easily change. There’s always a day-one patch, potential updates down the line, and sometimes the initial listed size is just a placeholder. But for now, that’s the range I’m mentally preparing my hard drive for. Had to delete a couple of things I haven’t touched in months to make sure I’m ready when it drops!
