Football Manager 2024 will release on November 6, 2023, as the series’ developer, Sports Interactive, has just revealed.
The acclaimed video game series puts you in the shoes of a football team manager, simulating every aspect of your team’s path to success.
Its vast and highly accurate database has been used by real-life football scouts to recruit players in the past.
Eagle-eyed fans spotted FM24’s price and release date earlier this week, and the official announcement has now confirmed the rumours.
PC and console gamers can already pre-order the management sim via their preferred digital storefront.
The price on PC remains unchanged from previous years at £44.99 / $59.99, but the console versions, which used to be cheaper, are now priced the same as PC.
Pre-orders of the PC, Mac, Xbox, and PS5 editions come with a 10% discount.
PC and Mac gamers will get “circa two weeks” of Early Access if they pre-purchase via Steam or the Epic Games Store.
