cllct: Schools' royalties tied directly to usage in EA Sports College Football 26

Through FOIA requests, cllct has learned that College Football 26 will utilize a new royalty structure in paying programs: “For each CFB product released by EA SPORTS, we (CLC Learfield) will provide a percentage for each institution based on the games played for that institution as a percentage of the total games played across all institutions. This percentage of games played will become the final allocation percentage for each school that will be applied to the total gross royalties for all institutions received.”

Continue on to read an excerpt of the article from cllct and Matt Liberman.

The new royalties structure was revealed in documents obtained by cllct via Freedom of Information Act requests and confirmed by multiple schools.

College Football 26 will be released worldwide July 10, following the incredible success of last year's version, which became the most widely played sports video game of all time with more than 1.7 billion streams of the game.

Beginning with this new edition released in July, all 136 FBS schools that opted into the game will be compensated by their popularity with gamers.

Sample Scenario:

• Total royalties reported in university pool = $5,000,000
• Total games played = 700,000,000 games
• Institution A’s games played = 7,000,000 games
• Institution A's allocation = 1% (7 million games played using the school out of 700 million total plays)
• Royalties = $50,000 (1% of $5,000,000)
