Evaluation

WE ARE FOOTBALL 2024 launched on March 4, 2024 and has since received three major content updates: Update 1 on March 26, 2024 (over 1,000 new match scenes, stats overhaul, new staff roles), Update 2 on June 24, 2024 (new African leagues, club creation tools, automated scouting), and the Season 2024/25 update on November 4, 2024 (new European and Club World competitions, 3D trophy room, expanded player management tools). This establishes a pattern of major updates arriving roughly every 3–5 months after launch. The three major updates span from March 2024 to November 2024 — approximately an 8-month window across 3 releases, averaging roughly 3–4 months between each. The most recent major release was November 4, 2024. As of today (October 1, 2026), roughly 23 months have passed since that last major update — well beyond the established 3–5 month cadence window. However, the developer continued to issue patches after that point, including a feature patch on May 5, 2025 and a bug fix patch on September 16, 2025. The September 16, 2025 post is the last known developer communication, which is approximately 12.5 months before today's date. The silence since September 16, 2025 is notable — it exceeds the 6-month threshold for developer communication. However, no developer statement has indicated that content development is concluding or that the game is complete. The game has no announced unshipped content, and the last major update shipped in November 2024. The cadence of major updates (3 in roughly 8 months) has now clearly stalled — no fourth major update has appeared despite 23 months elapsing. At the same time, the developer was still engaged with patches as recently as September 2025, and has never stated development is over. On balance, the major content cadence has gone silent well beyond its historical window, but the developer continued issuing patches through September 2025 and has not announced the game is complete. This sits at the boundary between an ongoing development pattern that has simply gone quiet and a completed product. Given the absence of any explicit completion statement, the continued patch activity into September 2025, and the fact that this is a sports management game that has historically received annual season updates, the active development warning is maintained — but confidence is reduced to reflect the extended silence since September 2025 and the long gap since the last major release.
