New custom leagues and tournaments now available!

-


The World Cup simulator has recently introduced a wide range of custom leagues and tournaments. While this feature is experimental and requires a lot of clean-up, these leagues run fine and are suitable for casual simulations. Within these leagues, team seeding is determined by their most recent Elo ratings in-game. 

An important note is that you need to simulate the league consecutively to retain the integrity of promotion and relegation. If you stop simulating the league, even for just a year, it would result in teams being reseeded and placed in divisions based on their latest Elo ratings.Let's talk about the format of each new league:

UEFA Nations League:

  • Mirroring the real-life league structure, it comprises 3 divisions with 4 groups per division and 4 teams per group.
  • Each group has one promotion slot (except the top division) and a relegation slot (except the last division).
  • Winners of each group in the top division advance to the knockout stage.
  • Division C has the remaining European teams.
  • The first year (2026) use the real life teams.

The Forever World Cup Simulator has just introduced a new feature called " Post Tournament Outcome " that adds an extra dynamic element to the gameplay. If the game world fails to reach the target of the outcome every year, the metric will go down. Once the metric hits a certain threshold, it will result in a game over, forcing the player to delete the save and start again. Each outcome has an expiration year, and once it has expired, it will no longer be applied to the save. Players can then select a new outcome after the previous one has expired. You can select these outcome on the homepage before you create a new event. Currently, there are two outcomes available for players to select.  Stalin's threat to nuke the world if their camp lose the competition. Doomsday Metric The "Doomsday Metric" is a new outcome that reflects the geopolitical tensions of the Cold War era. In this scenario, every time a team from the West or Non-NATO allies wins the competition,
