DLS 26 vs DLS 27: what has officially changed
First Touch Games has not published a DLS 27 feature list as of 9 November 2026 (EST). What is documented is DLS 26: its December 2025 launch notes and the 2026 updates in the App Store version history. They added Clans, Turkish and Arabic commentary, 2025/26 player data, unlimited special players, Dream Stars 26, Dynamic Stars, a Fanzone facility, a World Tournament event and the Cult Heroes collection. Any “DLS 27 new features” list that FTG has not published is speculation.

What is confirmed for DLS 27
Only the name and, if the reported teaser is accurate, a December 2026 window. The official stores and website list no DLS 27 features, player ratings, licences, stadiums or device requirements yet. Fan analyses of the teaser note that the manager-customisation screen it reportedly shows already exists in DLS 26, so it does not by itself prove a new feature. The help-centre image below shows the current manager editor.
What normally carries through a season
The current store description lists the core systems: 4,000+ FIFPRO-licensed players, 8 divisions and more than 10 cup competitions, stadium and facility building, Clans, Agents and Scouts, Coaches, kit and logo import, Dream League Live, scenarios and Dream Draft. These are DLS 26 features. FTG has not said which of them will change in DLS 27, so the other guides here describe them as they work today.
How we will update this page
When FTG publishes DLS 27 notes on the stores or its channels, this table will gain a DLS 27 row with the official wording and date. Until then, no feature is listed as confirmed.
