2025 will mark a break in the annual tradition of releasing Football Manager, as confirmed by its creators, Sports Interactive, and publisher, Sega. Instead of seeing Football Manager 25 on store shelves, it appears that this edition has been canceled before it even made its debut.
The reason is that their aspirations to revamp the franchise with this year’s launch are unattainable within the given timeline, so they have decided to postpone its release instead of putting out a subpar product.
Check out the full announcement post on X below.
It’s unfortunate when games are cancelled, especially so close to their release date. However, in this instance, the cancellation isn’t due to layoffs or studio closures. Given the size of this franchise, such a decision is significant, yet it shows courage and commitment to quality. Often, games with known issues are launched because fixing them later seems more appealing than ensuring a smooth buying experience right away. Take Spider-Man 2 as an example?
From my perspective, this timing aligns logically. As Sports Interactive has communicated, if they miss the March deadline, it leaves little room before the current season concludes globally for most regions. Come August, transfer activities would have resumed, and a fresh season would be in full swing.
For Football Manager enthusiasts, this implies another year with the existing game title. If you’re unfamiliar and curious about its popularity, let me tell you that as I write this, approximately 55,000 individuals are playing it on Steam alone. The fact that it is set to be released in November 2023 suggests that they like to launch their games early in the sports season.
I’m sorry to say this, but since the release has been delayed, those who pre-ordered will receive a refund. However, you can continue enjoying Football Manager 24 until we launch Football Manager 26. At least, you won’t be paying for an incomplete game, and that’s what truly counts.
