EA Removes College Football 27 Dynasty and Road to Glory Microtransactions
Over the past week, EA has been embroiled in controversy after players discovered that College Football 27 had microtransactions in its single-player modes, Dynasty and Road to Glory. Players were so upset that they organized a boycott of the sports title that went viral on social media. Well, the boycott worked, as EA has just announced in a post on X that they are removing the controversial microtransactions from CFB 27.
“Tomorrow morning, we will remove all paid progression options from Road to Glory and Online Dynasty. An unfortunate side effect of removing paid progression is that players that have College Point balances in their wallets will not be able to apply the balances in Road to Glory or Dynasty – so jump in between now and then and apply your points!”
EA also said they were moving quickly to patch out the unpopular single-player monetization due to player feedback. “We’re moving fast to respond to your feedback in-game, so stay tuned for follow-up communications next week where we’ll take you through more design details and share our goals for College Football 27.”
When Will College Football 27 Microtransactions Be Removed?
According to EA, the College Football 27 microtransactions will be removed in an update on July 11, 2026. It’s unclear what time the patch will roll out, but players should expect the update to hit PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC sometime tomorrow.
For players who already have College Point balances either from the Deluxe Edition or through purchases, they have to use the currency in Dynasty and Road to Glory now. Once the microtransactions are removed on July 11, those points will no longer be able to be spent, as explained in EA’s statement.
It’s also unclear whether EA will be offering refunds for those who have obtained the points.
