Last year, the simulator Football Club Manager 26 LIVE was released. Players were offered the chance to take part in matches against each other, manage the budget, search for footballers, and carry out transfers.
However, Football Club Manager 26 LIVE never became a major hit, and in early February 2026 the developer announced plans to shut down the servers:
It is with sincere sadness that I have to announce: the servers will be shut down. Unfortunately, sales were not sufficient to cover the costs of maintaining them, and piracy made the project's continued existence impossible. Thank you for your support and for playing. I sincerely appreciate it.
The Football Club Manager 26 LIVE servers are expected to be shut down at the end of February. No final discount for the game has been set.
