How to use custom playbooks in Dynasty in College Football 26

College Football 26 takes sports sims to the next level, bringing back another year of scholastic football excellence on the gridiron.

Before taking and doling out hits on the field, you have to make some hits in the study room when it comes to your playbook for both offense and defense. You can use any existing playbook from real world coaches in the game, or you can put in the work and make your own, piece by piece.

Custom Playbooks are back in CFB 26, and here's how to use yours in Dynasty mode.

First, make a custom playbook. To do this, navigate to the Create & Share tab at the main menu (L1/R1, LB/RB on the controller), then select Custom Playbooks. Here you can select plays from preset playbooks and real life coach playbooks to make your own.

You can tweak and edit existing playbooks to remove plays you don't want, or you can start from scratch and make your own full of genius tricks, options, blitzes, and wild coverages to keep your opponents guessing in every mode.

Now, once in Dynasty mode, you can select your custom playbooks for each individual game. When you're ready to take the field for gameday, at the team select menu, select your squad and then Team Settings. On the next screen, you can swap your Offense and Defense playbooks and find any custom ones you've made, like my "CUSTOM335" defense playbook in the image below.

Like CFB 25, you won't be able to add custom playbooks to your Coach page under the Schemes & Playbook section. You will have to select your custom playbooks at the start of each game in Dynastry for them to take effect once the game kicks off.
