Travis Hunter isn’t just prepping for the Big 12 season – he’s also getting fans hyped for the virtual gridiron!

Remember that outstanding cover of the EA Sports College Football 25 video game featuring Hunter? The wait is almost over, and the cover boy is throwing epic launch parties to celebrate!

Mark your calendars, Buffs fans and gamers alike! On July 20, head down to Town Center, Westminster, from 1 PM to 5 PM for a launch party Travis is hosting with “Roch Em” merchandise.

Not only will you have time to snag some cool Buffs gear and get Hunter’s autograph, but the two-way star himself is throwing down a sweet challenge: “Be there,” he says, “I’m also giving away a PS5 & 5 copies of the new @easportscollege game!” Now that’s a raffle worth showing up for.

But wait, there’s more! The day before (July 19), Hunter and his fellow Buffs are teaming up with their NIL Collective, 5430 Alliance, for another incredible launch party. Buffs fans and gamers can compete against CU Buffs players in a Madden-style tournament and interact with them live as the EA Sports game officially launches. This party takes place at the University Memorial Center from 3 PM to 6 PM MDT, with tickets ranging from $97 to $500. It’s the ultimate immersive experience for any gamer, offering a chance to “beat the Buffs at their own game.” 

The Buffaloes’ two-way star and EA Sports seem to have more surprises before the big day. After all, the game is launching after over a decade. Why not build some hype?

Leading the charge for EA Sports’ College Football 25 blitz is Travis Hunter

EA Sports is dropping their highly anticipated College Football 25 game on July 19 worldwide, with the deluxe edition launching three days earlier on July 16. To rev up the hype, EA has announced a killer lineup of stars streaming the game on Twitch before release. The “Gameday Showcase” kicks off on July 13 with NBA legend LeBron James playing alongside Frankie Walker. James will be representing Ohio State, showcasing his virtual skills. But wait, there’s something for Buffs’ fans, too. On July 14 at noon ET, tune in to the Twitch stream to see Colorado’s rising stars, Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter, battle it in the game using their avatars.

Sticking with EA after landing the game’s cover in May was an intelligent call. Not only did Hunter grace the cover art, but he was also featured on the deluxe edition poster alongside Texas’ Quinn Ewers and Michigan’s Donovan Edwards. As if that wasn’t enough, EA recently released their top 100 NCAA player list. Who’s at the top of the wide receiver rankings (and 6th overall)? That’s right, our cover boy, Travis Hunter, with a stellar 95 overall rating.

So, with all these promotions happening, it’s clear that Hunter’s partnership with EA Sports is a win-win.
