franchise mode
Simulated sports ownership
Franchise mode is a feature in sports video games that lets players manage a team across multiple seasons, handling roster moves, drafts, trades, contracts, and long-term strategy.
Unlike single-game play, franchise mode emphasizes building and sustaining success over years: I spent all weekend in franchise mode trying to rebuild the Cubs.
Sometimes shortened to franchise.
