Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Football Academy Manager is developed by a solo developer, and Early Access makes it possible to shape the game together with the community. The core experience is already playable, but player feedback is essential for improving balance, progression, and overall game feel.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The current plan is to reach a full release in the fourth quarter of 2026, however this may change depending on development progress, new features added, and community feedback during Early Access.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version is planned to offer a more complete and polished experience. Early Access will focus on refining the core gameplay, improving balance, expanding depth, and adding additional content based on community feedback. The final release will build on this foundation and include the improvements and features shaped during the Early Access phase.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The core gameplay is fully playable and stable. Players can scout talent, manage their academy, develop young players, progress through seasons, earn income, and build their reputation. The Early Access version already offers a complete gameplay loop, but some systems are still in a basic form and will be expanded and refined throughout development.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The Early Access version will launch at a lower price, and the price is expected to increase later in Early Access or at full release as more content and features are added.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Player feedback will play a central role during development. The community can share ideas, report issues, and help shape priorities through Steam discussions and social channels. Suggestions and balancing feedback will be regularly reviewed, and updates during Early Access will be guided by what players find most important or enjoyable.”
