Football Manager 2018 Official Release Date

Sports Interactive have just confirmed the official Football Manager 2018 release date.

Mark this day in your calendar:

Friday, November 10th, 2017

This year for the first time, all three versions of the game – Football Manager 2018 (PC, Mac and Linux), Football Manager Touch 2018 (PC, Mac, Linux, iOS and Android) and Football Manager Mobile 2018 (iOS and Android) will be released on the same day.



The first details of new features and updates in Football Manager 2018 will be revealed in late September.

The reason for that is simple; the game isn't ready to show before September 15th, which marks the day that game art will be completed.

Make sure to be checking back on our website to be kept up-to-date.

What is this beta version?

• Beta version is a full game very close to the final version; not the finished product, but full without limitations.


• The game will automatically update to the final release version on the official release date (given that your Steam client is in online mode).


• Saved games will be compatible with the final game.
