Football Manager 18.3.0 Update OUT NOW!
Football Manager 2018 - Neil Brock
Well in the UK right now it's pretty cold outside, so what better excuse to stay in, stay warm and play a bit of Football Manager 2018 than the release of the Winter Transfer Update?
As always this update is save game compatible to allow you to continue your pre-existing FM18 career. However, if you want access to all the latest transfers, managerial appointments and the like you'll need to start a new career game choosing the 18.3.0 Update database.
Once you open Steam the game will automatically begin to update. If FM is already open, we recommend first of all saving the game then exiting. Once you've done so the game should update, but if you find it doesn't just restart Steam.
If you encounter any issues, please take the time to raise them on our official Football Manager 2018Bugs Forum .
The changelist includes but is not limited to the fixes shown below:
