Korean indie studio Team Samoyed launches Teamfight Manager 2 in Steam Early Access

Korean indie game studio Team Samoyed has launched Teamfight Manager 2, a PC esports team management simulation game, in Steam Early Access. The game is available now on Steam.


Teamfight Manager 2 lets players take charge of a virtual esports team, train players, scout and sign talent, set tactics, handle bans and picks, and compete in MOBA-style matches. Building on the concept of the original Teamfight Manager, the sequel adds deeper tactics, more management systems, and a new match format.


Matches now use a MOBA-inspired structure with Top, Jungle, Mid, Bottom, and Support roles, with victory coming from destroying the enemy Nexus. Managers must evaluate each player's stats and personality, monitor solo ranked games and other teams' matches, and negotiate transfers and contracts to strengthen their roster. Player stats affect AI-driven decision-making and control rather than simply modifying direct damage values, creating a more natural management experience.


The game introduces dozens of new champions alongside returning champions from Teamfight Manager, with many existing champions receiving updated skills. Teamfight Manager 2 also supports Steam Workshop, allowing players to create and share champions, teams, players, maps, and tournaments.


At the start of Early Access, Teamfight Manager 2 includes the core gameplay loop, full champion roster, team management systems, and online league mode. During Early Access, Team Samoyed plans to continue adding champions, improving balance, fixing bugs, and expanding management features based on community feedback.


The game supports interface and subtitle localization in 13 languages: English, Korean, German, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, French, Spanish - Spain, Dutch, Portuguese - Brazil, Russian, Turkish, and Vietnamese.
