Football Manager 25, a popular soccer management simulation game, has been canceled due to development delays. The game was initially scheduled for release in March but will now not be released at all.
The decision comes after Sports Interactive, the game’s developer, realized that it could not meet its original deadline. The company had already delayed the game from November 2024 to March, making this latest change even more unusual.
Fans of the series will miss out on new features such as an overhauled interface and visuals, as well as the inclusion of women’s soccer for the first time. Despite its popularity among hardcore soccer fans, Football Manager is not as widely recognized in the US as other sports games like Madden.
This cancellation marks a rare event for popular, annually released sports games like Football Manager. The game’s developer had been putting in extensive work to improve the game, making it difficult to complete on time.
