Spain League

The new league format is largely based on the real Spanish league system. At release, it consists of three divisions: the top two divisions are populated with fictional club teams, while the third division is split into two groups, each containing 20 national teams with initial Elo ratings below 1400.

Divisions 2 and 3 both feature promotion playoffs. The brackets of the League 3 playoffs are based on the real format.

2026 Southeast Asia Cup

Introduced this temporary event to let you simulate the ongoing Southeast Asian tournament,

The event makes sure that each team will have the exact two home matches and away matches.

256-team FA Cup

Added independent and unaffiliated teams to fill up all 256-team slots so that there are no more first-round byes.

Teams -> Table

The team table is now available on the "Active teams" page. It lets you sort teams by confederation or tag.

Added a Rank +/- column to track rank changes and compare a team's current standing against the previous season.

Custom Ranking

On the "Active Team" page, you can now save your applied filters as custom presets. Since the team table can display both current and previous season rankings, this feature makes it easier to quickly load a list of specific teams and compare changes in rank. There are some default rankings, like "Past World Cup Champions", "Official World Ranking", "Indie World Ranking" (Only work when indie teams are active) and "Overseas Territories Ranking".

The filter tabs can be collapsed by clicking the tab header.

Appearances

In the "Consecutive" and "Return" tabs, the "Last" column should show the year of the team’s previous appearance, not the current appearance year.

Future Hosts Editor

There is a bug that causes the editor to fail to show up. It will be fixed in the web version first.
