Intel’s Core Ultra 5 225F hits a new low price at Newegg and it comes with a free copy of Battlefield 6 too

Intel’s Core Ultra 5 225F CPU has dropped to $157.98 at Newegg, marking its lowest price so far.

For anyone looking to build (or update) a desktop system around Intel’s latest Arrow Lake platform, this is one of the best discounts seen on a current-generation Core Ultra chip.

The Core Ultra 5 225F is part of Intel’s Core Ultra Series 2 lineup and is built on TSMC’s 3nm N3B process. It uses a hybrid 10-core layout with six performance cores and four efficiency cores, paired with a 65W base power rating.

Base clocks are listed at 3.3GHz for the performance cores and 2.7GHz for the efficiency cores, making it an efficient option for mid-range builds focused on everyday performance, gaming, and productivity.

What makes the deal even sweeter is the bundled software it comes with. Buying the Core Ultra 5 225F means you get Intel’s Holiday Bundle 2025, valued at around $60, included for free.

Buyers can choose one full game from a list that includes Battlefield 6, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, Dying Light: The Beast, or Sid Meier’s Civilization VII.

On top of that, the bundle includes bonus content such as Marvel Rivals in-game items, XSplit Premium Suite, Canvid, and a Vegas Pro Edit 365 subscription.

The promotion runs through January 31, 2026, with redemption available until March 15, 2026.

Intel backs the processor with a three-year limited warranty covering both parts and labor. Newegg is also extending its holiday return window, allowing purchases made between November 1 and December 31, 2025 to be returned until January 31, 2026, so you don’t need to sweat if something isn’t quite right.

At this price, the Core Ultra 5 225F is a great value option for builders who want into Intel’s Arrow Lake platform while also picking up a modern PC game at no extra cost.
