Football Manager 2020 will come with environmentally friendly packaging


Not all games always available in physical format. And although it is true that the reason why this occurs has nothing to do with environmentalism, manufacturer of these issues has costs. Costs and consequences, taking into account the large amount of plastic that is wasted along the way.

What is not usual, is that companies do something about it. That is, just what Sega and Sports Interactive will propose when Football Manager 2020 reaches the market (PC and Stadia). How about environmentally friendly packaging?

Moreover, according to Miles Jacobson, the director of Sports Interactive, he hopes for up to 20 tons of plastic with this measure. One that implies that the standard DVD box of this game will be made of 100% recycled cardboard, in addition, it will be wrapped by shrinkage in also recyclable low density polyethylene.

And if that were not enough, the interior manual will also be made of 100% recycled paper. In addition, all the ink you will use in both cases will be vegetable ink or a water base. The intention of Jacobson and his company is the initiative that can be standardized in the video game industry.

On the other hand, and to enter more specific numbers, we must take into account the new Sports Interactive eco packaging system implies that each physical unit will save approximately 55 grams of plastic. What could make 20 tons could be saved this year, just with this delivery and according to sales forecast.

In addition, the announcement comes just when there is a point of celebration of the United Nations Climate Action Summit where it deals with the problem of plastic pollution in the world. Do you like the initiative? Will you buy the game in physical format this year?
