XV: Rugby Manager

Take the points or kick to the corner? In XV Rugby Manager, you make the call.

Build your rugby union career with a club or national side, replay a historic World Cup, take on the Raeburn Shield or try the Daily Challenge. Pick your XV, develop your squad and shape your game plan, then watch matches unfold and respond when it matters.

MAKE THE BIG CALLS
Go for goal or chase a try in the corner. Change your tactics, make substitutions and use match stats to decide your next move. Take control of penalty decisions or let your team handle them automatically.

MANAGE CLUB AND COUNTRY
Lead a club through the seasons or take a national team onto the international stage. Watch the jobs board for openings and move to a bigger club or a national side when your reputation earns it. Build a side that suits your style and compete for silverware.

BUILD YOUR XV
Scout and recruit players, set your training intensity and balance form with fitness when selecting your team. Run training camps to sharpen your attack, defence, set piece or kicking, and follow how each player develops. Your squad grows, ages and retires across your career.

SHAPE YOUR GAME PLAN
Choose your approach to attack, defence, kicking and the set piece, and decide whether to play narrow through the forwards or wide through the backs. Compare your team’s strengths with the opposition before kick-off, then adjust as the match develops.

REPLAY RUGBY HISTORY
Take charge in ten historic men’s World Cup tournaments from 1987 to 2023, with squads from each era. Can your decisions change the outcome?

DEFEND THE RAEBURN SHIELD
Pick a nation and hold the shield for as long as you can. Each round brings a new challenger, and the tests get harder the longer your run lasts. Win or draw and you keep the shield. Lose once and the run is over. Every defence counts towards your best run, for each nation and overall.

TAKE THE DAILY CHALLENGE
Everyone gets the same international each day, with a goal to beat. Some days start mid-match: chasing a lead, a man down or holding on late. Read the opposition’s plan, pick your 23 and find a way through. Retry as often as you like.

PLAY AT YOUR PACE
Follow the action with match commentary and a 2D match view, or simulate fixtures to move your career forward.

Your XV. Your tactics. Your next trophy.
