Roadmap

These are the directions we intend to take the game next. They are intentions, not promises or dates: plans change when playing the game shows us something better. What actually ships is recorded, with a date, in the changelog.

What we intend to build

Deeper game days

More to read and decide on game day: richer Sim-Watch broadcasts, clearer reasons a game turned, and more ways for the week's plan to show up on the field.

Power rankings and award races

A weekly view of where every club stands, and award races you can follow through the season instead of only at the end.

Club finances

A fuller picture of the business side: what the club earns, what it spends, and how the owner's money and patience connect to the decisions you make.

More scouting fog

Extending the honest uncertainty of the draft board to more of the game, so that knowing a player well becomes something you earn.

Smarter rivals

Rival front offices that plan further ahead, build more distinct identities over time, and react more sharply to what you do.

The rest of the universe

Franchise Architect is built so other sports can follow football under the same roof. Football comes first.
