Game Over: FM25 Cancelled Due to Delays

Developer Sports Interactive has announced the cancellation of Football Manager 25 due to delays. The highly anticipated game, which was set to launch in March 2025, will no longer be released on any platform.

What Could Have Been: FM25 Promised Complete Overhaul

FM24, the previous entry in the series, was released in November 2023 and left players eager for more. FM25 was supposed to bring significant changes, including a new engine, new modes, women's football, and quality-of-life updates.

Tough Decision: Sports Interactive Focuses on Future

Sports Interactive made the difficult decision to cancel FM25, citing timing and the need for a fresh start for the series. The developer expressed gratitude for the support and announced that they will now concentrate on creating a new era for Football Manager.

Refunds and Extended Availability

Fans who pre-ordered FM25 will receive automatic refunds. Discussions are also underway with platform partners to potentially extend the availability of FM24 until the next game is ready for release.
