The 2025 Players Era Festival was an early-season college basketball tournament. It was the second edition of the Players Era Festival and the first to feature men's and women's teams. The tournament was played from November 24 to November 27, 2025. After the 2024 men's edition featured eight teams, in 2025 it was expanded to include 18 teams. The men's tournament was changed from an elimination tournament to a Swiss-system in 2025, with the teams with the best record and the largest margin of victory point differential advancing to the championship. A women's tournament was created in 2025, including four teams. Every participating team was guaranteed at least $1 million in NIL. An additional $12 million was given to teams based on performance. The Michigan Wolverines won the men's tournament, and the Texas Longhorns won the women's inaugural edition.
