The College Football 25 kicker's guide

College Football 25 is a college football simulator that, after years of development, has finally been launched. Almost everything that occurs on the field is faithfully reflected in the game.

Field goals are quite helpful, even if touchdowns are always crucial, particularly when the clock is running out. You can score these field goals by becoming proficient with your kicks, and you can hinder the opposition's ability to score by executing longer punts.

How to kick in College Football 25

Two distinct factors need mastery on your part.

• The directional reticle, which is controlled by the LS.
• The power bar, controlled by the X/A button.

The power bar is your greatest guide when it comes to ball kicks, which are rather straightforward.

• Hold the X/A button when the small arrow is in green. Green is the ideal outcome, and your kick will be inaccurate if you press the button in yellow or red.
• Keep hold of the X/A button as the power will start rising.
• Make sure that the power doesn’t reach the red zone. If it does, your kick will go out of bounds.
• Once you’re satisfied with the power of your kick, let go of the X/A button.

Another important thing to remember is that if you're kicking from the center of the pitch, you shouldn't attempt to alter the direction of the reticle. I've found that keeping it as default is just good. If you must shift course sideways, however, be careful to consider the direction and speed of the wind.

You may use the 'open practice' area in College Football 25 to rehearse your kicks. As an alternative, there are tasks in the Ultimate Team mode that require you to make a field goal.

College Football 25: How to Punt

Sending a punt in a game has the same control as making a field goal. It's crucial to grasp the power meter, however. You don't have to use all of your strength to score a field goal. When punting, it's important to aim for maximum force without touching the red mark.

Unless the wind speed has a significant impact, the direction reticle should be left in its default position. Punts have much less possibility of error than field goals.
