Football Manager 26 Touch announced for Nintendo Switch

Football Manager 26 Touch will be appearing on Nintendo Switch to close out the year. Today, SEGA and Sports Interactive announced that the game is planned for December 4, 2025.

The series previously took a year off following the cancellation of Football Manager 25. The new game is using Unity Engine for the first time, but with technology that converts your saved games to the new format, Football Manager 26 Touch will launch with save game compatibility for Football Manager 2024 and Football Manager 2023.

Here’s some additional information:

Powered by the Unity Engine for the first time, FM26 refreshes the entire managerial experience and sets a bold new standard in Sports Interactive’s and SEGA’s iconic history.

Every match brings greater drama and spectacle thanks to new volumetric animations from real-life matches and glorious, upgraded on-pitch visuals. FM26 delivers new levels of authenticity, with the newly-licensed Premier League providing the ultimate stage for this redefined era.

A new world of possibilities is opened up by the arrival of Women’s Soccer. Seamlessly integrated into the FM ecosystem as one soccer playing world, this debut is backed by the most comprehensive database of its kind and a host of licensed competitions set to be revealed in the coming weeks.

A reimagined user interface gives players greater control and influence over the make-or-break decisions in every career. Designed to be more intuitive for all players from series newcomers to FM veterans, FM26’s User Interface underpins further improvements across tactics, scouting and recruitment.
