Football Manager 2017 gets a release date

Take control of your favourite football team in Football Manager 2017, the most realistic and immersive football management game to date.

Football Manager 2017 release date: When is Football Manager 2017 out, how can you pre-order it, and how much does it cost?

If you pre-purchase FM 2017 on PC, Mac, or Linux, Sports Interactive are adding Football Manager Touch 2017 to the deal – the “lite” version created to be more “streamlined” by focusing on swapping players and winning matches – as well as entry to an “early-access beta” two weeks before the scheduled release date.

Those who purchase Football Manager 2017 on Linux, Mac or PC will get a free copy of Football Manager Touch 2017 (described as a “streamlined “transfers and tactics” version”), although the latter will still be available as a standalone purchase. Single-player careers started in the beta can be continued in the full game.

With over 2,500 real clubs to manage and over 500,000 real footballers and staff to sign, Football Manager 2017 elevates you into a living, breathing world of football management with you at the centre.

Further details of this year’s features will be revealed on the official website in the weeks ahead to stay tuned.
