DF11 Faces FM27 is out, and it opens the Football Manager 27 downloads here on FMPortugal. Since 2010, the DF11 team has been replacing the game’s silhouettes with real faces, in that sticker-album style many players recognise straight away. Your squad gets faces, and it becomes much easier to recognise every player.
Which packs are available for FM27
This year there are four free megapacks, two for men’s football and two for women’s. They all work on Windows, Mac, Linux, Game Pass and Epic, and you can install them in the middle of a save.
- DF11 Classic (men): over 264,000 faces in the classic style, at 260 x 310 pixels, covering 220+ leagues. It is about 15.7 GB and downloads via torrent.
- DF11 Pure (men): over 187,000 faces with transparent backgrounds and club shirts, covering every playable league. It comes in two parts or as a 6 GB torrent.
- DF11 Classic Women: over 9,000 faces from 28 leagues, from the NWSL to the WSL and Liga F.
- DF11 Pure Women: the same players in the Pure style, with transparent backgrounds.
The women’s packs are separate from the men’s, so if you want both, put both in your graphics folder.
Classic or Pure?
Classic is the familiar style and has more faces, including lower leagues that Pure does not cover yet. Pure looks more modern, because the transparent background blends better with FM27’s interface. In other words, pick Classic for maximum coverage, or Pure for a cleaner look.

Downloads
The buttons take you to DF11’s official pages, where the links are kept up to date.
- DF11 Classic Megapack Download – DF11 Classic
- DF11 Pure Megapack Download – DF11 Pure
- DF11 Classic Women Download – DF11 Classic Women
- DF11 Pure Women Download – DF11 Pure Women
The men’s Classic pack downloads via torrent, so you need a client such as qBittorrent or µTorrent. Please keep it open after you finish, to help the next person.
- Download the pack you chose from the official page.
- Extract it with WinRAR or 7-Zip (on Mac, with The Unarchiver). For Pure, put both parts in the same folder and extract part 1 only.
- Copy the extracted folder to
Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 27\graphics. If thegraphicsfolder does not exist, create it. - Open FM27 and the faces appear straight away, even in an existing save.
Monthly updates
DF11 also releases free updates every month. Classic updates arrive on the 1st, starting on 1 November, and Pure updates on the 10th. The women’s packs are replaced with full new versions every two months. That way your facepack keeps up with the season’s transfers.
There is also a Lite version of Classic, smaller and with a direct download, but that one is paid. Finally, DF11 does not have newgen faces for FM27 yet. Until then, see our newgen face options.
The files are hosted by their original authors. FMPortugal only points to the official download page — all credit goes to their creators.
