EA Sports College Football 26 Discounted: Free Steelbook Available Score Big with Savings and Collectible Steelbook Editions for PS5

EA Sports College Football 26 has launched its first significant discount since its July release. Multiple retailers are offering $20 off for both PS5 and Xbox Series X editions. PS5 players can also snag an exclusive free steelbook case at Walmart, dropping the price to just $50.

Best Buy is sweetening the deal by offering a bundle of College Football 26 and Madden NFL 26 for $100 (originally $140) on either console, effectively giving each game for $50.

The Walmart-exclusive steelbook edition features dynamic cover art highlighting this year’s star receivers: Ohio State’s Jeremiah Smith and Alabama’s Ryan Williams. The steelbook wraps the standard edition cover with a collage of logos from top college programs including Notre Dame, Clemson, Florida, Penn State, Nebraska, Texas, Oregon, and more. Xbox users at Walmart also receive a steelbook, but without a discount.

🏟 Review Highlights

College Football 26 earned an 8/10 for its improved presentation, expanded playbooks, and updates to Dynasty mode. While some issues from last year persist — such as player transfer quirks and inconsistencies in team rankings and awards — the overall experience is more polished and engaging for fans of the college football sim.

🔗 Bundle Savings with Madden NFL 26

At Best Buy, you can combine College Football 26 with Madden NFL 26 for $100, saving $40 overall. While Madden NFL 26 hasn’t received a standalone discount yet, this bundle allows players to get both EA Sports football sims for $50 each.
