Fans were outraged by the animated appearance of Texas QB Quinn Ewers

Fans were outraged by the appearance of Texas QB Quinn Ewers in a recent post about the new EA Sports College Football 25 game, set to be released in July. Ewers, who is featured on the cover of the game, looks quite different from his real-life self in the animated images, leading to widespread criticism from fans.

“Didn’t do facescans they went off of pictures using player likeness,” a fan tweeted.

“So why can’t EA add export draft classes? This is not even his face scan,” another wrote.

“100% that’s drunk Bieber,” one fan wrote.

Although, Ewers expressed his excitement about being featured on the cover,

“To represent the burnt orange on the real and virtual gridirons is such an honor,” Ewers said. “EA SPORTS games were the first place I lived out my childhood dream of playing for the Longhorns, so it’s a full-circle moment to now be on the cover of College Football 25.”

CFB fans have the opportunity to pre-order one of three editions of the game, each featuring a different cover. The base copy showcases Ewers, Colorado WR/CB Travis Hunter, and Michigan RB Donovan Edwards. Pre-ordering allows fans to secure their access to one of the most highly anticipated video games of all time.
