Football Manager 27 gets five-day free preview on PC and Mac

Sports Interactive will offer Football Manager 27 free on PC and Mac for five days before the game’s scheduled November 10 release, with all modes available and no signup required. The Launch Preview runs from 6 p.m. GMT on October 29 until 6 p.m. GMT on November 3, the developer said. Players can download the preview through Steam, the Epic Games Store or the Microsoft Store. Eligible Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers can also access it. The free preview is limited to PC and Mac, although the full game is scheduled to arrive on additional platforms.
