In the short time that Football Manager 26 has been out, creators have already cooked up some incredibly useful mods for the game. BassyBoy is one of the more notable FM mod creators out there, and he has announced that he’s planning to release a massive new FM26 Stadium Megapack on December 24, 2025.
In an X/Twitter post, the creator has answered some important questions regarding the stadium numbers (up to 50), performance, save compatibility, and areas of improvement regarding visuals.

I want to take the time to answer some of the most asked questions below.
When does it come out?
Probably the most asked questions are "will you do x stadium" and "when does it come out" and the release is still… pic.twitter.com/1mBIU1GYrC
One Of The Biggest Community Enhancements For Football Manager 26
A key element often missing in Football Manager games is the visual distinction of stadiums. Be it top clubs like Manchester United, Arsenal, or Barcelona, or clubs fighting it out in lower divisions, FM has never had much in the way of detailed stadiums.
This is exactly why BassyBoy’s upcoming Stadium Megapack is so important. His megapack promises to provide unique, custom 3D models for over 50 stadiums. This will finally give a lot of clubs their true home ground identity. The initial release list is quite long, covering major English grounds like Villa Park, Anfield, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, and lower league stadiums like Fratton Park, Portman Road, and Meadow Lane. Here’s a Google Sheet that outlines all the stadiums.
Bassyboy confirmed the megapack will launch on December 24 and will be a free pack upon release. Unfortunately, there are people out there who steal mods and sell them all the time, and the creator urges users to be aware of this:
“It will also be a free pack on the release! If you see someone charging money for the pack, it is not me, and I urge you to report them! I won’t charge money for the pack, but there will be a donation button on the website if you feel like I’ve earned it and you can and want to do so.”
Initially, the modder was planning on creating 180 stadiums, but time limitations required the reduction to 50. Fortunately, he mentions that this will be an ongoing project, so you can expect new stadiums down the line. It’s also good to know that the mod is save game compatible, meaning it integrates with existing saves ported over from FM23, FM24, and FM26. This is a huge win for players running long-term saves. If you want to stay tuned for the release, you can follow BassyBoy on X and check in on his FMScout profile from time to time.
