Football Manager 26 is getting a major graphics update thanks to the switch to the Unity engine. But for true fans, that’s just a side note. Now developer Sports Interactive is showing what’s really important: the user interface.
In the new installment of the soccer manager series, it has undergone more than just a cosmetic overhaul. The new “Tile and Card” system presents you with the most important information at a glance, while you can dive into the deeper details with a single click. Instead of the old start screen, there is now a portal that bundles all news, tasks, and calendar data.
The navigation is designed to be more streamlined and the search function more intelligent. New to the game? Then you’ll find the new in-game glossary called FMPedia useful, as it explains all the intricacies of this complex simulation. You can also customize the interface with bookmarks so that you always have direct access to the most important areas of the game.
Football Manager 26 will be released on November 4, 2025.
