The much maligned delay to Football Manager 2025 has caused issues with the fan base, media outlets and content creators have poured over announcement but if you remember in the September Development Update.

They were inviting FMFC members to the Sports Interactive Campus in London to assist with play testing the new User Interface and user experience of FM25.
Fast forward to December 2024, a post to the FM Scout Facebook group. A member of the group posted an invite to the first FMFC play. As shown below, the invite was a full day slot between the 7th and 17th January 2025.

This is good news because the 10/10/2024 announcement relating to the delay until March 2025, highlighted that the revised roadmap would probably be reinstated in January 2025.

Original Roadmap

So what does this mean?
Well due to the nature of the closed beta we probably won't hear anything until late January/Early February 2025. However, one thing is for certain, we can take comfort in the fact that Sports Interactive has some level of confidence that the game is ready for eyes on it albeit a limited number of testers, but still this feels like a massive step forward towards the March 2025 launch
