Football Manager Live is on its way. The game is complete, the servers are in place, and the customer service team are raring to go. The release dates for the gameworlds have also been published and are available here, with the first world kicking off on the 27th of October.
So what now?
One of the major hurdles over the last few months that we’ve had to overcome has been making sure that Football Manager Live works nice and smoothly when hundreds of people are playing at the same time. We’ve got this sorted and under normal circumstances it all works perfectly, however there is one last thing we need to know before we go live and that is how performance varies when the system is under extreme pressure.
How is this going to happen?
We want to pack full two brand new beta gameworlds with three times as many people as would normally be playing the game so we can see what happens and we need your help to challenge us by giving our systems a thrashing!
These gameworlds will open on Tuesday 7th October at 7:30pm (BST)
Why should you bother?
Well, although the gameplay won’t be exactly the same as it will be in live, it’s still a great chance to try before you buy! To take a look around the game and see what it’s all about. Think of it as a little taster of what you can expect from Sports Interactive’s new online football game.
Sounds great, how do I get involved?
It’s simple, all you have to do is click

After you’ve logged in using your SEGA pass account, you’ll be asked to choose your team name and some other basic team details before being given instructions on how to download the game client and get into the game.
Places are limited and will be allocated on a first come, first serve basis.
We look forward to seeing you in there,
The Football Manager Live Team
