Posted by John Grothier - PC - UK and Europe

Sega Europe and Spots Interactive today announced a parternership with Sega to publish all titles from Sports Interactive for the next five years. Following Eastside Hockey Manager (working title) due for release this summer, Sports Interactive's next project will be the latest incarnation of their highly-acclaimed football management series - Football Manager 2005. Sports Interactive are well known for their Championship Manager award winning series, and Football Manager 2005 will see numerous advancements in technology and gameplay, including new tactics, pre- and post-match analysis and other features designed to immerse players further into the game.

Naoya Tsurumi, of Sega Europe, commented, "Sega Europe's relationship with SI is a significant partnership for both companies. Sega is looking forward to growing its base of market-specific products outside Japan, and signing one of the most important developers in the UK underlines our strong commitment to this."

"We are absolutely delighted to have signed a long-term deal with one of the biggest players in the global games business," added Miles Jacobson, Managing Director, Sports Interactive. "We're justifiably proud of what we've achieved with our previous games and business relationships, but we believe that this new agreement will take us to even higher levels. With both Football Manager 2005 and Eastside Hockey Manager due for release within a matter of months, we're confident that 2004 will be just the first of many successful years for Sports Interactive and Sega."

We will bring you more on Football Manager 2005 soon, but until then we have these early stat-showing screens for you.
