As the summer sun fades and autumn’s crisp air gains ground, the excitement of the NFL season resonates with football fans everywhere. This weekend, from September 12-14, 2025, serves as the perfect opportunity to immerse yourself not just in football, but also in a trio of outstanding games available on Game Pass. These selections are bound to keep your gaming spirit alive while you celebrate the onset of fall.
1. EA Sports College Football 25
For fans of college football, EA Sports College Football 25 is a must-play title. Available through EA Play with a Game Pass Ultimate membership, this game beautifully captures the essence of the college football experience. While recent updates in the EA Sports franchise may have seasoned fans clamoring for the latest entry, College Football 25 still holds its ground.
Its on-the-field action is not only fast-paced but fluid enough to get you immersed in the thrill of the game. There’s a palpable atmosphere at play, especially if you’re attached to your alma mater’s spirit — the return of beloved mascots, commentary, and real-world coaches adds layers that veteran players will appreciate. Critics say that while it may not break new ground, it delivers an exhilarating experience that keeps die-hard fans enclosed in its vibrant world. If you’re ready to dive into the excitement of college football, this game is your ticket.
2. Rematch
Developed by Sloclap, known for their acclaimed title Sifu, Rematch brings a fresh and energetic take on multiplayer soccer. This game gained significant attention throughout the summer, with its seemingly simple mechanics disguising a thrilling depth beneath. Rounds are quick, and strategies are aplenty — from pulling off rebound goals using arena walls to stylishly flicking the ball past goalies.
A recent update introduced crossplay capabilities, allowing friends across different platforms to join in the fun. This enhancement has the potential to boost player engagement and community size, making this weekend a perfect time to jump in. Whether you’re a seasoned player or brand-new, there’s something for everyone in Rematch, but do keep the team chat muted unless you’re keen on some lively banter that could easily turn chaotic. This game promises a refreshing multiplayer experience for both casual gamers and serious soccer aficionados.
3. Wheel World
For those who prefer a unique twist on the gaming experience, Wheel World invites players into a creatively designed open-world cycling adventure. Here, you play as an aspiring pro cyclist, restoring faith in ancient bike deities while conquering various races and challenges. The game cleverly intertwines economic themes within the cycling context, allowing you to explore the balance between technology and traditional cycling charm.
With manageable gameplay and a delightful art style, Wheel World manages to gamify the sports of cycling, making it engaging even for non-cyclists. As you navigate challenges laid out by contrived yet hilariously arrogant rivals, you also get to enjoy a journey that is both tranquil and entertaining. Even if you’re not deeply into cycling, Wheel World features enough quirky humor and engaging mechanics to keep you entertained.
Conclusion
As your weekend approaches, keeping your gaming library fresh is essential for overcoming the inevitable fatigue brought on by both the changing seasons and the excitement of football. EA Sports College Football 25, Rematch, and Wheel World represent a splendid mix of sports and innovation you won’t want to miss.
This weekend, gather some friends for an exhilarating multiplayer soccer match, lace up your digital cycling shoes for a whimsical ride, or dive into the nostalgia of college football to cheer on your team. While you relish the fall air and the thrill of the NFL season, these three games seamlessly bridge the gap between sports fandom and immersive gaming experience.
Ultimately, the world of gaming offers us a chance to connect — not just with the games we play but with friends, community, and the inherent joys found in both sports and play. So gear up, dive in, and relish this weekend with some of the best titles available on Game Pass.
