Sports Interactive’s Football Manager 2022, which tasks players with building the best football club in the world, has sold its millionth copy. Director Miles Jacobson revealed the news on Twitter, confirming the sales milestone was reached just yesterday. “In these difficult times, especially with the cost of living crisis, this is not something we take for granted.
“So thank you to all of you who have bought the game -or played via Game Pass or other platforms.” Released on November 9th 2021, Football Manager 2022 took less than eight months to hit this milestone. By comparison, its predecessor hit that milestone in less than two months and still holds the record for the fastest-selling title in the series.
Regarding new features, Football Manager 2022 offers 123 football leagues and over 500,000 real players to recruit. Features like staff meetings, a new manager creator, Fantasy Draft improvements and combined weekly reports also abound along with the addition of the Wide Center-Back role.
