Sega's Unexpected Announcement: No New Football Manager for 2025 Season

In a surprising turn of events, Sega and Sports Interactive have announced the cancellation of the next Football Manager installment, originally slated for the 2025 season. The decision, revealed in an official statement, cites the game's unfinished state as the primary reason for cancellation. All pre-orders will be fully refunded.

The game, already subject to two delays, was intended to showcase a significant technological advancement. However, the developers ultimately fell short of achieving their ambitious goals. This transparent admission is a refreshing change from the practices of some other sports game franchises, notorious for minimal updates between releases.

This news is undeniably disappointing for fans. The developers also confirmed that Football Manager 24 will not receive a 2025 season update, meaning players will be stuck with an outdated version for the coming year. This is particularly disheartening given the history of Football Manager players securing real-world football jobs based on their in-game success.

The future of the Football Manager franchise remains uncertain, pending further announcements from Sega and Sports Interactive.
