Is College Football 25 cross-platform?

Yes, College Football 25 features cross-platform play between the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. This option is toggled on by default, but it can be turned off if you prefer to strictly play with players on your platform. However, this isn’t available for every mode, so if your goal is to play with friends in a different ecosystem, you’ll want to check the list below and be sure the mode you want to play together is supported.

The following modes support crossplay in College Football 25:

  • Road to the College Football Playoff
  • College Football Ultimate Team
  • Play a Friend

Unfortunately, Dynasty Mode does not provide cross-platform functionality and can only be played with other players on your platform. Additionally, College Football 25 does not offer cross-progression, so you can’t move your progress from one platform to another.

Magnetic gaming keyboards and lightweight mice are hardly unusual anymore, but Lenovo is trying to push both ideas a little further with its latest Legion peripherals. The new lineup includes the Legion R7 RT75 keyboard and Legion Y7MG mouse, and both support an 8,000Hz polling rate for players who want every input delivered to their PC as quickly as possible.

Of course, Lenovo has styled these peripherals to be as bold and eye-catching as possible without getting in the way of practicality. The keyboard has a hefty metallic design with translucent keycaps and RGB lighting. Compared to that, the mouse is more tame and traditional in design, but it also has an RGB strip that appears to belong on an alien spaceship. (via NotebookCheck)
