Football Manager 25 has been significantly delayed and will no longer be released before the end of the year, with a statement admitting the devs were “rushing out too much.”

Sports Interactive’s latest entry in the long-running franchise has given the team big challenges after moving to Unreal Engine 5. Following recent criticism, a decision was made to delay the launch of Football Manager 2025 until March 2025.

Football Manager is one of my guiltiest pleasures. From taking Luton Town and Borussia Monchengladbach to European glory to establishing Atlanta United as a behemoth in North America, I’ve amassed many achievements I’m proud of—and I’m not alone. 

For the last three decades, Football Manager has occupied a unique space in gaming and football. It’s a virtual product where players can live out their managerial fantasies, all while the franchise makes a significant impression in the sport itself. Few games are as impactful as Football Manager, which offers a blend of the real world and virtual world in a way that teaches important lessons to everyone—including delicate topics others may be afraid to touch.

Football Manager boss Miles Jacobson admits the franchise was “part of the problem” with the stance towards women’s football and that it’s “crazy” the feature is only coming to the game this year.

Women’s football has seen a significant rise in recent years due to receiving more attention from the media and games. Football Manager 25, launching on Nov. 26, will allow women to take charge of a women’s side for the first time.

Football Manager 25 will be released with considerably fewer game modes than previous entries in the series as part of a major overhaul, Sports Interactive announced.

The franchise is set for a big change in FM25 with a move onto the Unity game engine and the introduction of women’s football alongside the fully-licensed Premier League for the first time—but there will also be some significant removals from the game.

Football Manager 25 is set to add a feature fans have been crying out for in droves for years with the addition of a huge new license.

Sports Interactive’s long-running Football Manager franchise is one of the beacons of sports gaming, attracting millions of players every year. And now, you’ll finally be able to access a fully licensed Premier League soon.

Football Manager 24 players have discovered a bug that lets you sign any player for next to nothing, making your dream transfers a reality.

Managing a transfer budget in Football Manager 24 can be a challenging task, especially if your club isn’t blessed with riches. Now, you can sign any player you want for a measly fee by exploiting a recently discovered glitch.

Football Manager 2024 is the 20th installment in the Sports Interactive’s soccer series, and the developer promised it would be “the most complete edition to date.” Unfortunately, it’s fallen short of this promise.

FM24 became increasingly disappointing the more I played and poked around. Unlike last year, when I was frustrated with FM23’s new features as a whole, this time, I was looking forward to seeing smarter AI squad building, a new set piece system, better player interactions, more options for selling players, and the best 3D match engine the series has ever seen. Unfortunately, none of these features do much to impress.
