With the recent launch of PES 2017 (our review is forthcoming!), Konami (which still makes video games, believe it or not) has released the first title update for its soccer game.
The free download updates all rosters and teams made during the most recent transfer window and is a must-grab for any fan of the sport. Additionally, the update includes the launch of the myClub mode, allowing players to build their own persistent squad.
“KONAMI is extremely proud of what we have achieved with PES 2017,” said Tomotada Tashiro, President of Konami Digital Entertainment B.V.
“Our close relationship with our fantastic fan base has seen us make a series of improvements that they wanted to see. We have established close relationships with key partners to ensure the realism within the game reaches new heights, and have plans to add a dedicated PES League element to capture the imaginations of our more competitive eSports players later this year. PES 2017 represents a new standard in football games and we are delighted that, from today, football fans all over the world can get to grips with its many intricacies and stunning gameplay.”
The game competes directly against EA Sports’ FIFA 17 and is regarded by many football fans as the go-to soccer simulation. This latest version of the game will integrate a dedicated PES League option that invites players to join directly into the Official PES League to compete against rival players online. This will be made available through an update later this year.
In addition to the new update, Konami has released PES 2017’s official launch trailer, which you can see below. The game’s currently out on the PS4 and Xbox One.
