FC Manager 26 launches on Mobile as Soccer Manager creators tries a new managerial direction

More management!

Story Highlights
  • FC Manager 26 launches on Android from Soccer Manager creators Invincibles Studio.
  • The title allows players to create custom clubs and compete in live real-time matches.
  • Transfer market features real-time bidding and squad-building mechanics.

Invincibles Studio Ltd, the developers behind the long-running Soccer Manager series, have quietly rolled out a brand-new football management title on Android: FC Manager 26. It feels familiar at first glance, but the approach here seems slightly different.

FC Manager is a fresh yet extra competitive version of Soccer Manager

So core remains the same, management. Yes, the classic football management formula, but it keeps things not so complex like the bigger names in the market. You create your club from the ground up, choosing its name, badge, and colours before assembling your squad.

From there, you’re in charge of everything that matters: signing players, setting formations, managing transfers, upgrading facilities, and pushing your team up through the league system. Matches play out live in real time, so instead of just simulating results, you actually watch your tactics unfold and make changes during the action.

Matchday feels like a core feature here. You can tweak tactics mid-game as you chase promotion or try to avoid relegation. There’s also a competitive transfer market where you scout talent, place bids in real time, manage loans, and shape your squad over multiple seasons. Youth development and training facilities are present too.

Now, a little comparison, even though they aren’t the same. From what’s visible so far, FC Manager 26 doesn’t seem to go as deep as the main Soccer Manager titles in terms of tactical complexity or database depth. But that may very well be intentional, because you are giving the market a nice choice: go for the full-fledged relaxing option or try this not-so-complex yet competitive one.
