Football Manager 27’s Launch Preview is available at no cost on PC and Mac until Nov. 3, 2026, at 6 p.m. GMT. The full game is scheduled for release on Nov. 10.

Players can download the preview through Steam, the Epic Games Store, the Microsoft Store or Xbox Game Pass for PC. No purchase is required during the free-play period.

The preview includes all game modes, including Shuffle Draft, which is designed for shorter football-management sessions. Players who buy the full game can transfer their saves and continue their careers after the full release.

Players who purchase the game can continue using the Launch Preview until the full release on Nov. 10. Pre-orders are available from approved retailers with a 10% discount.

Sports Interactive has replaced the traditional Beta and Advanced Access periods with the Launch Preview. The studio described the new format as a way to give players access to a version closer to the finished game.
