Football Manager 25 Set to Launch on November 27
/
Sega revealed that Football Manager 25 is set to launch globally on November 27, 2024.
This new iteration of the series has seen a major shift as Football Manager 25 was developed in the Unity engine, and features a revamp of the game’s user interface (UI) to cater to different kinds of players that approach the series without sacrificing detail.
Another major inclusion to this iteration of the series is the inclusion of Women’s Football, which allows players to participate in either leagues.
“FM25 is just the starting point for the studio’s next 20, 30 years.” says developer Sports Interactive Studio Director Miles Jacobson. “It’s also the point where the world gets to see two of our multi-year projects come to fruition: the switch to the Unity engine and the introduction of Women’s Football. It gives us a real sense of achievement to begin sharing our hard work with you and we're really looking forward to showing you more of the game in the weeks before the game’s release.”
More details to come about new features
With the release date of Football Manager 25 revealed, Sports Interactive also shared roadmap to when they will share more of what’s new in the game, starting with Women’s Football as they will share more about this feature on October 7. Soon after, expect the developers to talk about the changes to the game’s interface, Tactics, match experience, Your Manager, Football Manager 25’s mobile, and more leading up to the game’s release.
Football Manager 25 will be available in multiple platforms
Football Manager 25 will be available simultaneously on PC, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox/PC Game Pass, and PlayStation 5.
The studio will also be releasing Football Manager 25 Touch on the Nintendo Switch on December 4, 2024. Further information on the release of FM25 Touch will follow in the coming weeks.
In addition, Football Manager 25 Mobile is scheduled to launch as a Netflix exclusive also on November 27. Players will benefit from the introduction of Women's Football and the new Premier League licence, as well as the ability to carry over their save files from FM24 Mobile, although FM25 Mobile has not made the switch to Unity.
While Visions of Mana doesn’t do enough to propel the series to new heights, many can find comfort in knowing that what we have here is another solid JRPG that can easily reiterate why you fell in love with these types of games, and that it’s a comfort to know that in 2024, there are still new adventures that can transport you to the good old days.
