Sports Interactive and SEGA have announced that Football Manager 2014 has been released on all available platforms, including Linux.

Football Manager 2014 boasts a much better Match Engine, tactical overhaul, realistic transfers and contracts, more sophisticated board interaction, improved interaction with players, and a lot more.

“Play on Linux for the first time, plus the inclusion of ‘cloud-save’ technology which means that managers can now pursue a single career from any computer, anywhere in the world.”

“FM14 also includes integration with Steam Workshop making it easy for managers to create and share customised FM content such as photo/logo packs, new and custom competitions and tailor-made challenges using the new Challenge Editor,” reads the announcement.

This is the first game in the series to receive Linux support, and the community has been very grateful for the Linux port.
