When will Football Manager 25 Release? Platforms, Game Pass, and more

Football Manager 25 has been announced for all available platforms, and we finally have a release date.

This year’s title will differ from the last few years, as Sports Interactive is shifting to a new Unity engine. Naturally, certain changes have been made to the usual launch schedule from previous years when we could play in the early months of November. This time, you’ll need to wait longer to showcase if you’re better than Pep Guardiola and Erik Ten Hag in the virtual world.

The wait for a new FM ends on November 26, when the game goes live on all available platforms. There is a chance that the release on some/a particular platform(s) will be delayed (which happened a couple of years back). I hope there won’t be such a case this time around, especially with the new game engine that Sports Interactive has been teasing for more than a year.

There won’t be any change to accessibility this year, and Football Manager 25 will be released on PC, consoles, and mobile devices. You’ll require a PC to get the full edition, which consists of the full-scale complex nature of football management. The console edition, in comparison, offers a more linear experience.

The Touch edition will be available on the Nintendo Switch, a bridge between the mobile and console versions. The mobile version will also be available on iOS and Android as a Netflix exclusive.

Once again, the new Football Manager game will be a day-one addition to Xbox Game Pass. PC users can enjoy the full version with their PC Game Pass membership. Xbox console users can enjoy the console version, which will be offered with their Game Pass subscription.

Unlike Xbox/PC users, the game won’t be available on PlayStation Plus anytime soon. For PlayStation users, buying a retail copy is the only way to enjoy the game on November 26.
