    This game is a shining example of how annual releases should be done. FM remains the standard bearer that all football games should be following.

    The new season has begun, and Football Manager fans can rest assured. This new edition more than lives up to all its novelties, improving everything in a simulator that, now more than ever, remains the king. While awaiting the graphical improvements announced for Football Manager 2025, this edition is a significant addition for all of us who love the other side of the beautiful game.

    Football Manager 2024 is a great experience for anyone who has played the series in the past 10 years. It refines all the core gameplay, adds some interesting new ideas, and gives players a lot of freedom to engage with the mechanics they like and delegate the rest.

    Football Manager 2024 doesn't revolutionise the franchise, at a time when Sports Interactive is probably thinking more about the next iteration, which will introduce women's football. Even so, the improvement to the game engine is the most significant in the last three years, the new negotiation system makes squad management more attractive and the creation of dead-ball tactics has never been so intuitive. FM 24 has a 1-0 lead, but is already thinking ahead to the big clash in the next fixture.

    This year's version is not at the level of DLC or a simple update. There are plenty of changes, but it depends on your play style whether you take advantage of them or not. You can play total micromanagement or throw it to the assistants and just enjoy the matches, and maybe even manage minute to minute there. [Issue#332]

    A simple update of FM23 for Sports Interactive? Yes and no. We will impatiently await the expected revolution in Football Manager 2025 with a new graphics engine, a new milestone announced by the London studio, but Football Manager 2024 still offers some new features to titillate regulars. If the women's championships are still not present this year, managing a men's national team is much more interesting. We are pleased to find the database and unlimited parameters, boosted by European Cup licenses and even the graphics engine dated during matches offers more convincing animations. Finally, the launch of a game is readjusted with the choice between a scenario that fits with the realities of the current season or your own scenario, or even the possibility of resuming your FM23 save. Welcome adjustments to spend hundreds of extra hours this season to unearth the most obscure talents and finally win the Champions League with a club previously in English D3.
  7. Football Manager 2024 is inevitably an end-of-cycle game. SI's passion meant that even this year, we got a number of decent innovations, some surprising like the improvements in animation. However, the outdated engine and gameplay patterns, more and more easy to read, are still there with them. You'll play it and enjoy it, but don't necessarily expect a memorable release.
