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.

If you've been curious about Xbox Cloud Gaming but didn't want another monthly subscription, Microsoft may have a new option for you. The company is testing a free, ad-supported version of Xbox Cloud Gaming for Xbox Insiders, allowing eligible players to stream select games they already own without a Game Pass membership.

However, you'll have to watch a short advertisement before your session begins. Microsoft says the ads will never interrupt gameplay, making this an early test of whether a simple tradeoff can bring cloud gaming to more players.

Lenovo has expanded its LOQ gaming laptop lineup with a new graphics option. The company has introduced a refreshed version of the LOQ 17IRX10, pairing Intel's Core i7-14700HX processor with Nvidia's newly announced GeForce RTX 5070 12GB laptop GPU. The update gives buyers another configuration to choose from without changing the overall design or feature set of the laptop.

The new variant joins Lenovo's existing LOQ 17IRX10 lineup, which was previously available with GeForce RTX 5050, RTX 5060, and RTX 5070 8GB graphics options. While the chassis remains unchanged, the addition of a 12GB RTX 5070 brings more VRAM to the series, a specification that has become increasingly important as modern AAA games demand larger texture caches and higher memory capacity.

The Legion C700 will measure just 14.99mm at its thinnest point and weigh approximately 556 grams, or around 1.25 pounds. By comparison, Lenovo’s Legion Go S is 22.6mm thick and weighs about 730 grams, while the ASUS ROG Ally X measures 24.7mm and weighs 678 grams.
