Microtransactions have been removed from the Dynasty and Road to Glory modes for EA Sports College Football 27 amidst player backlash, EA has announced.
The move comes after players discovered that the single-player modes featured microtransactions and organised a boycott of the latest entry in the College Football franchise, the results later going viral on social media. Now, speaking on X, EA has confirmed that is cutting all microtransactions as a result of the backlash.
Tomorrow morning, we will remove all paid progression options from Road to Glory and Online Dynasty. An unfortunate side effect of removing paid progression is that players that have College Point balances in their wallets will not be able to apply the balances in Road to Glory or Dynasty – so jump in between now and then and apply your points! Our goal for the live service plans in CFB28 and beyond will be to deliver valuable features and content with greater transparency and communication.
EA Sports College Football 27 was released for PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S on July 9.
