Football Manager 26 Out Soon, No FM25
In a big shock that ends a long tradition, SEGA has stopped making Football Manager 25. But fans, you won't have to wait long, as they've just said that Football Manager 26 is coming. This marks a big new start for the famous game series.
A Big Choice Going for Good Stuff, Not Just New Stuff Every Year
The cut of FM25, after many delays, was hard but needed, the makers say. They didn't want to "just push a half-baked game out," wanting to keep the game's good name rather than just sticking to a yearly drop. This is a big change for a game that has come out every year for more than 20 years (or 33 years with its old name, Championship Manager).
What's Coming A Peek at Football Manager 26
The news on Football Manager 26 came with a short video peek. It didn't show game play or say when it will come out, but it did share one big thing the game is being made on the Unity engine.
This is a major shift. Going from a very old game-making system to a new, full-of-use one like Unity means FM26 is not just another game; it's a whole new start in tech. This could bring the big fixes fans have wanted, like:
- Much better 3D games, with top graphics and moves.
- A nicer, newer way to move through the game.
- Better running and less lag on all tech.
What This All Means for You
While it's sad there's no game for 2024, the switch to FM26 on a fresh engine looks good for the game's long run. Missing this year lets the game makers really get to know the new system and make big, real upgrades, not just small team swaps. They are clearly set on making a strong, new base for the future of soccer game managing.
