Eastside Hockey Manager is a singleplayer and multiplayer text-based and top-down view simulation, sports and business game in the Eastside Hockey Manager series.

The game was the first title in the series since NHL Eastside Hockey Manager 2007. As the latter had received a modding community that kept interest alive, the 2015 game is backwards-compatible with database files made in the 2007 format. An active modding community still creates up-to-date international roster databases and face packs. Unlike prior titles in the series, all teams are unlicensed by default, save for the 2016 roster of the Elite Ice Hockey League from the United Kingdom.

The game entered early access on March 26, 2015, with the full release following on December 1, 2015. As of April 2021, a public beta branch exists which hosts a lot of fixes, some recent databases may require it.
