    Some Florida State football fans aren't getting the full experience playing College Football 25 .

    The highly popular college football video game received an 8 GB update Tuesday. EA Sports laid out some of its upcoming patches in a Monday post in its Answers HQ page . Not all of what was listed will have been included on Tuesday's update, but the Orlando-based video game company is working on making its highly popular game run more smoothly.

    Among the issues was FSU football's War Chant, which users have reported isn't audible on the Xbox Series S. Here's how it looks and sounds on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, complete with Osceola, Renegade and the Tomahawk Chop :

    Players on the Xbox Series S, a smaller, digital-only version of the current-gen game console by Microsoft, have been reporting the sounds of the FSU Marching Chiefs and the fans' chant aren't coming through.

    EA Sports said it is working on a patch to fix the auditory issue, as well as a similar issue affected Tennessee's "Rocky Top."
