“In our last Development Update in September, we explained that we had to push back the release window originally planned for FM25 to give us a little more time to provide you with the best possible experience for this first edition in the new era from Football Manager. This additional development time was unfortunately not enough to ensure that the quality of the game and the experience met our expectations and our very rigorous standards.“, announced the developers of the game in a press release.
They believe, among other things, that the graphics must be completely revised. Even though the game has not lost its popularity in 20 years, the graphics are starting to age. “FM25 is the most impressive visual and technical leap of the entire series, the press release assures. But development takes too long: “We simply cannot jeopardize the release of this crucial turning point in Football Manager’s history by rushing to deliver it in November“.
However, fans may be disappointed by such news. Especially since the release in March would coincide with the start of the end of the football season. If Football Manager 2025 lives up to its promises, the disappointment should quickly disappear.
Video games are becoming more and more popular in Belgium, and the profile of players is changing: “The share of female video game players has increased by 10%”
