Best Football Manager Games in 2027
If you want the Sports Interactive game, Football Manager 27 is the 10 November 2026 release at £49.99 / €59.99 / $59.99 on PC, with console, Netflix and Apple Arcade editions. This site has not independently verified its current Metacritic score. The free preview is the way to look before you pay.
If you already own Football Manager 2024 or Football Manager 26 and enjoy its interface, keeping it is a reasonable option. Compare the features you actually need before paying for a new edition; no numerical review ranking is asserted here.
If you want free on a phone, two different games use 27 in the name. Soccer Manager 2027, from Invincibles Studio, is a free mobile game. Ultimate Football Manager 27, from Gamebasics, is the other free Android and Windows game, with ads and purchases according to its Google Play listing (single source). Neither is FM27 Mobile. The Netflix one is the Sports Interactive phone edition.
If you want a browser and no install, the community Championship Manager 26/27 project runs in a desktop browser and updates the old 97/98 game. It is not published by SEGA. Other studios also publish PC management games; no current WE ARE FOOTBALL price or date is asserted here without a verified store source. International Football Manager 27 is a different Steam app dated 10 December 2026.
