What you're getting

Management you actually play

Every match is a live game you steer, not a result you read. The decisions are yours from the first whistle to the last.

Play both halves live

Kick-off, half-time and the second-half push - a real 2D match plays out in front of you, minute by minute, and you steer it the whole way.

⚙️

Real tactical depth

Choose your formation and starting XI, then set the approach - defensive, balanced or attacking - plus mentality and pressing. Read the game and react.

🗳️

Subs & team talks

Make substitutions on the fly, change shape, and give a half-time team talk. Tweak the plan and the match shifts with you.

📊

A living league table

Eight leagues across Europe, a full fixture list, and a table that moves every week. Chase the title, push for Europe, or scrap to stay up.

🏥

Fatigue, morale & injuries

Rotate a tiring squad, keep the dressing room happy, and manage knocks, injuries and suspensions across a long season.

✈️

Fully offline

No account, no internet, no ads, no tracking. The whole game runs on your iPhone - play it on the train, on a plane, anywhere.

The matchday loop

From team-sheet to final whistle

Every fixture is yours to manage, start to finish - then the table updates and you go again.

    Pick your club

    Take a job in one of eight leagues across Europe. Title favourite or relegation underdog - your choice sets the challenge.

    Choose a formation, build the XI around your best players, and pick your tactical approach for the match ahead.

    Give the team talk, make your subs, change shape or mentality, and send them back out with a new plan.

  5. 5

    See out the second half

    React to the scoreline, manage fatigue, and chase the result. Hold on for the win or throw bodies forward for a late goal.

  6. 6

    Climb the table

    The table updates, the season rolls on, and the board is watching. Win enough and the trophies - and bigger jobs - follow.

One season is just the start. Stay in the job and the game grows into a full management career, season after season.

Questions

Good to know

How much does it cost?

It's free to download and play a full first season. An optional one-time Full Game unlock lets your career continue season after season, and there are optional Club Credits packs you never need to buy. No ads, no subscription, no tracking.

Do I play the matches or just watch?

You manage every match live. Set the formation, XI and tactics, then steer the game across both halves - make substitutions, change your approach and give team talks while a real 2D match plays out minute by minute.

Which leagues can I manage in?

Eight leagues across Europe - England's top two tiers plus the top flights of Spain, Italy, Germany, France, the Netherlands and Portugal - each with a full fixture list and promotion and relegation between divisions.

Does it need an internet connection?

No. The whole game runs on your iPhone and plays fully offline. The only time it touches the network is to process an optional in-app purchase through the App Store.

Are the club and player names real?

Football Club Sim 26 is an independent game and is not affiliated with or endorsed by any league, club or organisation. Names are text-only with no crests or logos, and a Generic Names setting swaps every league, club and player name for a fictional one.

Do you collect my data?

No accounts, no analytics, no tracking. Your career is saved on your device and never sent to us. The only data involved is the purchase record Apple and our payments provider handle when you make an in-app purchase. See our privacy policy.

Can I run more than one save?

Yes. With the Full Game unlock you can run several careers in multiple save slots, take new jobs on the job market, and keep your honours and records as you climb.

Which platforms is it on?

It's built for iPhone and coming to the App Store.

The dugout is waiting.
