Sega and developer Sports Interactive have announced that Football Manager 25 will no longer release in November, but instead will release in March 2025, giving the game a staggering 5 month delay.

What makes the delay interesting is the game was only just announced, so announcing the game and then delaying it just over a week later, is an odd choice. You can read the full statement of the delay below, but given the game has moved to an all-new game engine, they clearly have come to realise that would not just be a simple update.
