EA Sports increases payment for players in College Football 26 video game

The players are paid more than twice what they were last year to appear in the upcoming edition of the College Football video game from EA Sports.

EA Sports said that it would increase the name of the players, the picture and similarity payments from 600 to 1,500 US dollars for their inclusion in the upcoming College Football 26 game.

The players also receive a deluxe issue of the game as they did for College Football 25 game, and some also receive additional remuneration to promote the game as a brand ambassador for the public.

This is a remarkable increase for the players who can be taken into this year's game and reflects the success of College Football 25, which after his debut last summer became the highest sports video game ever overall.

And it will be a major investment for EA Sports, which will spend more than $ 16.5 million in the game for the zero rights of the players and will set a record for the greatest one-sports zero deal ever.

This is only in terms of direct payments, not the value of the game itself that the players receive, the additional income that is achieved by brand ambassadors.

“From the beginning we designed our NIL program in such a way that it is accessible, directly, directly, voluntarily and fairly accessible, and every FBS athlete who uses the OneTeam platform and the compass NIL app offers the same compensation at the basic level,” said EA Sports Vice President of Business Development Sean O'Brien in a statement.

“This approach authorizes every athlete to make his own decision.
