Football Manager 2008, also known as Worldwide Soccer Manager 2008 in North America and Fútbol Manager 2008 in South America, is a football management simulation video game and the fourth instalment in the Football Manager series developed by Sports Interactive and published by Sega. It was released in October 2007 for Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, and PlayStation Portable and in March 2008 for Xbox 360. The demo for Football Manager 2008 was released on 30 September 2007.[1] There are over 5,000 playable teams from more than 50 countries.[2]
Football Manager 2008 was the last Football Manager game to be released on the Xbox 360 and the last to be released on an Xbox console for thirteen years until Football Manager 2021 was released on the Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S on 1 December 2020. The game was succeeded by Football Manager 2009.
