Football Manager 2013 is a football management simulation video game and the tenth instalment in the Football Manager series developed by Sports Interactive and published by Sega. It was released on Microsoft Windows and OS X on 2 November 2012.[1] Football Manager Handheld 2013 was subsequently published for PlayStation Portable on 30 November,[2] and for iOS and Android on 13 December.[3][4]

Gameplay

Football Manager 2013 features similar gameplay to that of the Football Manager series. Gameplay consists of taking charge of a professional football team (the game also includes semi-professional, amateur, and international teams) as the manager. Players can sign football players to contracts, manage finances for the club, and give team talks to players. The Football Manager series is a simulation of real world management, with the player being judged on various factors by the club's AI owners and board.[5]

Football Manager 2013 includes a quicker mode of play called "Football Manager Classic". This new mode allow gamers to complete a season in less time than the normal game mode. It retains the 3D match engine and player/staff database but simplifies the way players manage their club and allows them to focus on selected key areas to build success. A player can complete a season in approximately seven hours of gameplay. Football Manager 2013 also includes a number of pre-set challenges, offering players scenarios designed to test their management skills over a set period of time, usually half a season. The challenges replicate a variety of real world circumstances. On 19 December 2012, two new challenges were added to the in-game store.[6]

Release

On 6 September 2012, Football Manager 2013 was officially announced via a mock press conference video on Sports Interactive's YouTube channel.[7][8] It was confirmed the game would include over 900 new features, including a new mode called "Football Manager Classic". Release was slated as prior to the Christmas holiday season.[9][10][11] On 27 September 2012, it was announced that the game would be released at midnight on 2 November 2012. On 18 October 2012, a fully playable beta version was provided to customers who pre-ordered either the digital version (via Steam) or physical versions (from selected retailers). Save data from the beta was compatible with the final version.[12] On 26 October 2012, a game demo was made available.[13]
