So that’s the FM14 editor detailed.

FMC14 Challenge Editor

For FMC, you can make your own challenges using the challenge editor and, of course, share these with everyone in the Football Manager community via Steam Workshop.

FM14 In-Game Editor

There will be an in-game editor available from the FM14 in-game store as a paid download. Sports Interactive confirmed IGE is definitely happening, and we'll have more details in the coming weeks to let you know exactly what you can edit using this, and the price.
