Football Manager 2024 | Match Engine Revamp | #FM24 First Look

Football Manager 2024 - the most complete edition of the series, delivers the most authentic match experience to date.

From the introduction of a brand-new player role to improved off-the-ball movements and positional play, FM24 brings you even closer to the real-life experience.

Notice lighting changes from your first kick-off, improvements to ball physics, a revamp to player locomotion and much, much more.

You guys really took the criticism of last year to heart and approached FM 24 with a renewed spirit. Props to you, FM 24 sounds very, very promising, especially the tactical aspects and the match engine! I'll be honest, I said to myself I wasn't going to buy FM this year, but you won me back with the announced features.

Match engine looks great so far! Noticed a few clips where there's no shadows present 0:12 and 2:16 for example, hopefully they're just the normal work in progress bugs we sometimes see. When the match engine's lighting is on point such as 2:21 the difference is staggering. Really excited for FM24!

Looks insane, this is apart of the game that needs upgrading the most, deflection realism looking clean af well done

[lfmm]

This looks like a true upgrade. It looks significantly better, did not expect this. Credit where it's due. Not only does the game look better graphically but I also instantly noticed that the ball moves much more realisticallyI'm buying the game this year. The way the ball moves at 2:20 when the through ball is played is so satisfying to watch. Please keep this up for next year as well with the new engine. Thanks for listening to us.

0:09 The shot animation looks brilliant. Honestly speaking I didnt expect so many new features this year considering the big move to Unity next year but have to say I am pleasantly surprised. Good job 👌

[pavelbavtra]

i love it! i buy your product once in 2-3 years normally and play my own pace, am a fan since first versions. For me it is important to see these changes and hard work behind it to buy another one. ill buy this one full price. you guys won the competition vs FIFA series for me. i prefer to be a manager ❤

[sdewndr]

This does look very much improved - iv not played since FM22 and i can definitely see the difference!

[ViKingOutLDR]

Looks smashing 👌 Bought every Football Manager since very first CM back in the old days, even beta tested FM Live, good times 🙌

[tariqkasule]

Firstly, I thank the FM management for improving the game engine. Hopeful for more surprises on November 6th.

[JCatharsis]

Oh boy can’t wait to test out the inverted wingback

[eragonxs]

So amazing, I can't wait to see match engine of FM25 with unity

[schlauchflicker]

Looks good but let's be honest, we are all waiting for the big Unity Engine glow-up!

[razorman]

I think they have knocked this one out of the park. Like quite a few people have said already, it seems like they have listened to the FM community. I have pre-ordered my copy and I don't normally pre-order games for obvious reasons (false promises). I feel this has been a very transparent view of an up and coming game. Looking forward to the beta.

[TiagoWakabayashi]

i loved the new ME, i will be able to reproduce some ideias that currently wasn't possible

[justincredible]

Looks great. Only bit of constructive criticism I have though is that the players still look like they're sliding across the pitch with the ball.

[antonydandrea]

I wish you would have a camera that is from the dugout. I have wanted this every year. The day you do this, will make this a fully immersive simulation.

[SSChewbacca]

Please update the sound effects as well as they sound like they are from the 1980's!

[TCCPH]

Looks very nice! Hope you will consider making new newgens aswell! Both visually to make them look more realistic, but also being able to develop as they get older as they age. Imagine getting a player in as a 16 year old youth player, and seing him again after 20 years in the game as a coach. That would really help develop the "story" that you are creating in Football Manager. Keep up the excellent work - thank you.

[Omidan]

Looks exactly the same as the last 10 years

[TheWeller]

Every goal scored from a cross, I hope it's not going to be a crossing simulator again?
