Football Manager 2017 comes out on Friday, 4th November 2016.

There are two versions, both out on the same day: Football Manager 2017 and Football Manager Touch 2017.

Those who buy Football Manager 2017 on PC, Mac or Linux get a free copy of Football Manager Touch 2017, the latter of which is the "streamlined, transfers and tactics" version of the football management sim. Touch is also available standalone that day.

If you pre-purchase FM2017 you can access the beta two weeks before the release date. Single-player careers started in the beta can be continued in the full game.

There's also Football Manager Mobile 2017 in the works.
