How to Manager Live Takes Center Stage with EA FC 26 Career Mode
EA SPORTS FC™ 26 is bringing a major shake-up to Career Mode. This year, the spotlight falls on Manager Live, a brand-new system designed to give players constant, evolving challenges. For years, fans have crafted their own scenarios outside the game. Now, EA is officially weaving that creativity into Career Mode itself.
Manager Live: Endless New Challenges
The new Manager Live Hub acts as your gateway to short-form and long-term scenarios. These Challenges update weekly and monthly, drawing inspiration from real-world football moments. Some will align with the highs and lows of actual competitions, like the frenzy of the transfer window or the knockout stages of the UEFA Champions League.
Other scenarios are “What If?” moments—relegation battles, dramatic point deductions, or testing whether you can win a league fielding only youth players. Each one is designed to keep Career Mode feeling fresh every time you load it up.
Completing Challenges doesn’t just earn bragging rights. You’ll unlock exclusive kits for Manager Career and even progress through the Season Pass for rewards like ICONs and Heroes. You can also connect with friends to share Challenges or compete with the community by tackling the most popular ones on the Hub.
Building Your Manager Identity
Before diving in, players can create their own unique manager profile. Choose your outfit—whether sharp suit or tracksuit—pick a name, and select up to five clubs. These choices personalize your Hub experience, ensuring recommended Challenges connect directly to the teams you care about most.
Navigating the Hub
The Hub is built for quick, smooth access. Permanent tabs include “For You” (personalized Challenges), “Continue” (your saves), “Popular” (the most-played scenarios worldwide), and “Completed” (your last 15 successes). Dynamic tabs, on the other hand, adapt to current football events—like Champions League nights or themed Challenges around transfer windows.
EA promises a seamless flow: pick a scenario, jump in, and immediately feel the intensity of football management.
