Football Manager 25 is finally on its way, with Sports Interactive confirming the news and announcing a release date. The game will arrive for PC, Mac, Xbox and PS5 on November 26, just in time for some Thanksgiving gameplay. At the same time, FM25 Mobile is launching exclusively on Netflix, while FM25 Touch should come to Nintendo Switch on December 3.
FM25 comes with two big updates: a switch to the Unity engine (everywhere except mobile) and women’s football (or soccer, depending on where you’re reading this from) arriving into the same world as the men’s teams. Sega-owned SI first announced the development of women’s games in 2021, claiming it would take a while to do in order to provide the same depth as the men’s ones. Last year, it confirmed women’s teams would be in FM25.
In a statement, Sports Interactive Studio Director Miles Jacobson said, “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.”
Right now, anyone who pre-orders FM25 for PC or Mac from a SEGA-approved digital retailer will get 10 percent off. SI will announce pre-orders for Xbox and PS5 editions later.
