"The FIESTA BOWL is pleased to partner with Playstation to present this year's Playstation Fiesta Bowl," said Mike Nealy, FIESTA BOWL Executive Director. "PlayStation's commitment to creating unique and exciting experiences matches our desire to deliver one-of-a-kind events to fans each year."

The category exclusive multiyear deal makes PlayStation® the official gaming and virtual reality sponsor of the CFP. ESPN will collaborate with PlayStation® on multimedia content integrations across ESPN programming, featuring the PlayStation® brand messaging, "Greatness Awaits," to drive excitement and anticipation for the CFP.
