Pro Rugby Manager 2015: The First Rugby Union Management Game in a Decade!

505 Games, a global publisher of video games, this week announced Pro Rugby Manager 2015 for PC and iOS tablet devices, the first game in 10 years to cater for rugby fans who want to experience what it’s like to manage their own rugby union side. 

Pro Rugby Manager 2015 puts rugby fans in the shoes of a manager of their favourite rugby union teams. They must guarantee sporting success on the field and financial success off it, to secure the job for another season or to be recruited by a bigger club.

With a state-of-the-art sports management engine developed and iterated upon over many years, and a match-play feature for would-be managers to take active control of your team during games, Pro Rugby Manager 2015 covers all aspects of the challenges of a real rugby union manager.

Developed under license from the biggest rugby union leagues in the world (Aviva Premiership Rugby), PRO12 (Wales, Scotland, Ireland and Italy) and Ligue Nationale de Rugby (France), Pro Rugby Manager 2015 will give players the opportunity to manage any of the 54 official teams from these leagues.

Pro Rugby Manager 2015 is being developed by Cyanide Studio, who count among their credits the last rugby management games to be released, Pro Rugby Manager (2004) andPro Rugby Manager 2005, as well as various other sports management titles including the hugely successful Pro Cycling Manager series.

Pro Rugby Manager 2015 will be released for PC and tablet in September 2014.
