The best news in our opinion is the fact that they have been able to get the rights to newly-licensed competitions like the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Europa League and UEFA Europa Conference League.

This is huge news and will make the game feel even more realistic and genuine and will look amazing when you are playing in these competitions.

Fans were able to be in European competitions before, but now, they will be able to do so knowing that they will have the official UEFA Champions League in the game.

With developers Sports Interactive able to pick up these licensing deals, they will no doubt be able to acquire a lot of new players.

We have seen games like FIFA 22 and eFootball acquire big deals with either clubs, leagues or competitions, so it is very important that Football Manager did the same with the Champions League, Europa League and the Europa Conference League.

The game is available on the PC, Xbox, Playstation and Nintendo Switch. It will be the first time that the game will be available on the Playstation 5.
