SEGA and Sports Interactive have announced that Football Manager 2023 on PS5 has been delayed days before its launch.
FM23 was supposed to make its PlayStation debut on November 8th, however, that will no longer be the case. The delay is “due to unforeseen complications which have arisen during the submissions and approvals process.”

Miles Jacobson, Sports Interactive’s Studio Director, said:
We’re devastated by this outcome, which we have worked tirelessly with our partners for a number of weeks to try to address.
“It was especially difficult to make the decision to delay, as it involves holding back a great game which a number of talented people within SI have worked tremendously hard on for quite some time. We will continue to do everything in our power to get this game into the hands of PS5 gamers as soon as we can.
No new release date has been given, however, SEGA and Sports Interactive will provide an update “at the earliest opportunity.” Furthermore, anyone that has pre-ordered Football Manager 2023 via the PS Store will receive a full refund.
Football Manager 2023 releases today as intended on other available platforms. Were you planning on picking up FM23 for PS5? Let us know across our social media channels.
