The big Football Manager interview: series boss Miles Jacobson on what went wrong with FM25, and what to expect from FM26
Football Manager boss Miles Jacobson talks with us in depth about what happened with FM25, how Sega responded to cancelling it, and the upcoming FM26.
In a spacious corner office overlooking the still-sparkling development area of the 2012 Olympic Park in Hackney Wick, surrounded by framed football shirts, studio awards and a not-insignificant amount of desktop clutter, Jacobson sits facing outwards, looking over two big sofas towards an even bigger wall-mounted TV. On the first day back in the new year, when Jacobson was still meant to be off for the holidays, he came straight in and spoke to Matt Caroll, Sports Interactive's COO, about the realisation the game wouldn't make it for its twice-delayed release window of March 2025. For the first time in an age, Football Manager fans who've planned holidays around the series' near-clockwork release in early November (and 'advanced access' period of a few weeks immediately before it), don't have a clear idea of what to expect.
