Target seems to be offering 20% off a Xbox series x and NCAA Football. $502.88 for both. I was planning on picking up a PS5, but maybe this changes things if it’s cheaper than a PS5 digital.

Edit: deal good through July 20th

Happy (Early) Release Day!

Does having Xbox console with Game Pass and the extra cost to access EA Sports games allow me the early access?

I think in order to play today you needed to buy the madden/CFB bundle deluxe edition. I also think if you pay for EA Play, you can play today.

If you ordered the deluxe version of CFB you can play tomorrow, I believe.

Deluxe releases at 3. The bundle is just the deluxe version of both.

Not sure about game pass as I don’t have that.

I don't know why I'm having so much trouble understanding this, but if I order the Madden/NCAA Deluxe Edition bundle do you get NCAA today? Everything I read seems to say the 16th...

Someone correct me if i'm wrong but I don't think you need to get the madden bundle, just the NCAA deluxe pre-order. That's what I did and it says I've got access for today. Unless I accidentally bought madden too without knowing...

fwiw i was able to download yesterday
Yea and did you try to open the game? It says to wait until the access period begins. This is so people don't overrun the servers right at 4pm ET and then everyone gets pissed that it's taking forever to download.

There will likely be a smaller day 1 update you'll need to download around then but that's better than the 30GB or whatever the full game is.
