Maximum Entertainment has officially announced the release date for one of the most requested features in Maximum Football. The highly anticipated Franchise Mode is set to launch on December 9, 2025, bringing a groundbreaking level of customization and simulation to the free-to-play football title.
The reveal comes with a brand-new trailer highlighting the depth, flexibility, and strategic freedom players can expect when the mode goes live next month.
A Connected College-to-Pro Football Universe
Franchise Mode is positioned as the most ambitious update in Maximum Football history. For the first time in the genre, players will be able to link their Dynasty Mode college careers directly into the Franchise Mode pro ecosystem.
Graduating seniors from Dynasty Mode will automatically enter the following year’s Franchise draft pool, allowing players to develop, recruit, and coach athletes through their entire football journey—from campus to the big leagues.
This seamless progression creates a living football universe where stories evolve naturally, and player legacies extend across multiple seasons and leagues.
A Fully Customizable Pro Football Experience
Customization is at the heart of the new Franchise Mode. Maximum Entertainment has designed the system to allow football fans complete control over how their league looks, feels, and functions.
Players will be able to:
- Import custom teams and fully redesign their leagues
- Reorganize divisions and align them with personal preferences
- Set custom rules for gameplay and team operations
- Shape strategies and grow their reputation as an elite coach or GM
According to Anth Rogers, Head of Product and Studios at Maximum Entertainment, “Maximum Football’s Franchise Mode puts players in complete control of their team, their league, and their legacy. Our community has been asking for this since Early Access, and we are incredibly excited for everyone to dive in and experience the freedom of Franchise.”

Dynamic Trading System
