One question,if one have played the game on XBox Gamepass and added real names fix and so will those function via Epic or do one have to either move their location or re-download and re-apply them and how with saves. Just a question re between for example Steam,Xbox Gamepass PC and Epic.

I'm pretty sure you'll have to reinstall it, check the installation instructions for the real name fix and it has specific game pass locations.

Hey thanks for the heads up!
For me, it's showing “buy now” and at the checkout it's showing $74.99. Is there any code I can put in to skip payment?
Thanks

I suspect its unlocked at a certain time when all of world are in the correct date,that st least experienced at Steam and wouldnt be surprised if Epic do a similar thing. Advice could be to find the free games thing at Epic Games Store,there Football Manager 2024 stands ss Coming soon plus 5-12 of September as the dates. So best to wait dome hours at least
