THIS IS NOT THE LATEST VERSION - GO CHECK OUT PSF 2026!
From a flexible installation package to a customizable ticker to wide open career play to a greatly improved AI, you asked for it, and you got it! And remember, with Steam's Remote Play Together, you can play your friends around the world! Playing against another person raises the intensity to a whole new level!
As always, the PSF goal is to put more power in your hands, and this year, that starts with the game installation. You choose where to install the game and mods! But that’s not all …
Career Play now supports 1 to 16 conferences, and 2 to 140 teams!
You can now change the game’s coaches at any time, even during the game! Easily switch between taking over either team or watching the AI play both teams, or even just let the AI finish the current possession, the current quarter, or the rest of the game! If you’re watching a game, you can decide to step in and take over either team (or both!)
The new studio ticker expands on last year’s popular PSF Studio and now provides updates around the league! And you can customize it however you want – change the background and text colors, change the possession marker, decide which games to include, even decide how often you want it to update!
A big request has been most flexibility in tweaking the injuries and fatigue, and you can now do this! Raise or lower fatigue or injuries (or turn them off completely), and even turn off multi-game injuries if you want to limit injuries to only the current game!
No more losing veterans when they are cut! They’re now placed in a waiver pool and can be drafted in a later draft or even a future year! To enhance this, career play now has two separate roster adjustments and a new Waiver Draft!
Also, viewing the different drafts (Rookies, Free Agents, and Waivers) is streamlined this year! You can easily switch between each pools so you can see what players are available in all the pools!
Live Sims now let you pause on any screen, rather than just the animation!
New stats have been added, too – track rushes, passes, and catches of 20+ and 40+ yards, and you can now track how many fourth downs a team tried to convert in a season!
Single Season play now lets you export all active players, with positions and OVR (will be added to career soon!)
The editor has improved this year as well, with a new three-quarter length option, easier Team screen, and improved generated player uniforms (animation images)! Modders have created many image sets with all sleeves options!
Continuing with improving the user experience, you can now easily search and filter when trying to locate a league or a player, great for editing leagues or viewing player history!
Expanded rules now has more options and MANY more historic sets! And more overtime options!
And most importantly of all, the AI has been greatly improved this year, whether it's choosing draft picks, calling plays, or managing the clock! Of course, I have never, and never will, have a cheating AI! If the AI is tough to beat, that's a testament to all the users who sent me their detailed suggestions with play by play examples, and to hours of work and testing to get the AI better and better!

Extrêmement déçu. Le jeu répète généralement le même play ou la même défense, l'IA n'est pas bien évoluée. Les propositions de jeu sont farfelues (course sur 3rd & 12 !) Par ex pour dire que l'IA fait n'importe quoi : je regarde le match cpu vs cpu je mène 28 - 7 et à 5 minutes de la fin l'adversaire va enchainer TD + Onkick et récupération + TD + Onkick et récupération + TD. 28 -28 Prolongation ! Le truc improbable surtout avec un QB de 65 ovr en face... Prolongation et évidemment je perds :/ L'IA en fait est défaillante et te colle au score sur la fin de match pour "faire comme si il y avait match" :s Tu peux avoir un QB avec plus de 90 OVR mais une évaluation sur la saison de 60 ! C'est trop hasardeux et pas du tout fidèle aux stats. Même pas la possibilité de définir quel CB doit défendre sur tel WR, une aberration ! Quant aux graphismes, bah c'est très vieillot mais ça on le sait avant d'acheter ^^ Bref j'espérais une vraie simu tour par tour sur le foot américain, avec un playbook modifiable, une IA de qualité au moins (pour faire l'impasse graphique), un peu comme OOTP mais non c'est un jeu détente merdique sans grande importance qui se joue en fond de tâche, à ce prix c'est NON. Limite une arnaque.
I've played this game for the past several years and it continues to get great improvements each year. If you're looking for the coaching - X's and O's side of things, there is no better football option with the depth and complexity of play calling. Similarly, if you're the type who likes historical replay, to try to replay or rewrite history with your favorite teams and leagues of the past, this game is also great for that. The above game styles don't particularly appeal to me, as I'm more of a career mode guy who likes to play in fictional leagues and develop my own history and world and see career rises and fall. While the game is certainly not on the level of say Out of the Park Baseball in terms of career mode depth/customization/functionality, it is quite a nice, streamlined package for career mode and the developer continues to add new items to this side of things each year that help with immersion. The waiver draft is new this year, and provides another nice boost for player movement, with at times a very solid player being able to move on to a different team where he can play more of a role. The free agency system is basic, but also allows for a method for player movement. Having everything as an option with several ways to play helps. If you're someone who wants to control the action on the field with a controller, or want cutting-edge graphics, this game is not for you... but the on-field representation provides a nice throwback feel and does a good job of providing greater immersion (versus say a straight text sim where results are just written on screen) The developer Kerry is extremely responsive and in tune with the community. He consistently listens to suggestions and adds things to the game based on player feedback. The game certainly isn't perfect (but I'd say stability and bug wise it's a game that consistently releases better than many of its peers), but it's a very immersive and in-depth football sandbox that is a lot of fun.

really really really love this game.played apc and second and ten like psf the best.
I was really excited for this game, however there were way too many issues that made me refund the game. First of all, the game wouldn't allow me to click to draft or for free agency, just scouts and that's all. Secondly, many times during gameplay it freezes or it just has players tackling in an endless loop where I have to quit game because the skip button didn't work. The ticker also never worked for the game either, so that kills immersion.
PSF is still my go to football simulation. It is easy to create mods for custom leagues. The 2024 edition doesn't have many major additions over 2023, but has many smaller changes that add up to improve the game and give it some more polish. A nice touch on what was already a great game.
giocabilissimo, grafica non eccelsa ma molto interessante
Great game-level football simulation, and management aspects are being improved every year. Worth checking out if you want to be a head coach and call plays, while not worrying about your games's stats being out of whack compared to the rest of the league.
As always, the game is excellent. Superb attention and dedication from the developer -- which makes this title get better with each release. Would love true multiplayer though! Need the feature that sold me on this series dating back all the way to TLSF in 1993. 31 years now! :)
Despite the graphics this is simply the BEST FOOTBALL SIM on the market today ! Amazingly realistic play with superb developer support and developer acceptance of customer input. All around a pretty astounding product !
Won the Superbowl this time, Kerry Bates, you are the man. I am so proud of myself this time. Couldn't beat Pro Strategy Football 2020 or 2023. But this one reigned over all.
