How many hours have you invested in this game?

Don’t get me wrong, I understand the attraction. My management credentials in Football Manager has seen me do a much better job than Steve Bruce in getting Aston Villa back to the premier league. It has also seen me win the Champions League with St Johnstons.

With the level of depth and general realism, it’s a great franchise. It was also, one of the first mainstream titles to really go for the Linux market.

Don’t believe me? Here’s a number of players that Football Manager predicted would come good.

Wayne Rooney

Romelu Lukaku

Neymar

Vincent Kompany

Sergio Aguero

So as you can tell, they’re pretty good at scouting for a video game developer.

So what can we expect?

In a report via PcGamesN, Football Manager 2018 is set to bring tactics and scouting to a whole new level.

Updates will include:

A new graphical engine.

New stadium presentations.

Significant improvements in tactics.

Improved AI (goalkeepers will still undoubtedly look awful).

Well, your prayers have been answered.

Football Manager 2018 is set to release on November 10th, 2018.
