Like its predecessor, this update of the best soccer game of the year includes the best options, which can be summarized in three main points: It also adds a new UEFA EURO 2020 mode ahead of the actual 2021 tournament where PES 21 players will be able to simulate the game at Wembley and includes all 55 UEFA national teams. This update includes all the player's new data and club lineups for the whole year (except for Inter Milan and AC Milan for which it has lost its license). However, given this year's exceptional health situation, which is impacting this sport so much, and the efforts made by the studio to prepare for the arrival of new generations of consoles, Konami has decided to launch an update on the previous eFootball PES 2020 instead of releasing an entirely new game. Hopefully, there'll be an unofficial transfer update too, as Torres is still with the Reds, and such like.One more year, and it's been 25 years, Konami launches a new Pro Evolution Soccer version to compete with EA Sports' FIFA. Naturally, you can change the names and kits in the editor, and we wonder if there'll be online fan edits to download and store on the SD card. And from a rapid whizz through the options and menus, the set-up is as PES as it comes, right down to the mocked-up team names for unlicensed properties (such as Merseyside Red for Liverpool). We haven't had a chance to play multiplayer yet, but will do before launching into a full review. The sweet spot is fairly small, so you have to stay predominantly still. The one thing to note though, is that you may need to adapt your game to avoid waving the 3DS around, or else you'll visually lose track of what's going on as the 3D screen blurs out of view. It's almost worth the purchase just for that. It plays much more like PS2 Pro Evolution Soccer, and the 3DS' newly-adopted thumbstick allows you to actually play the game in a fluid and natural fashion. That's the point in three-dimensional gaming, after all.īetter news is that, from the few matches we've played so far, this version of PES is far better than anything that's come out on an Xbox 360 or PS3.

That's not to say that you don't get a half-decent 3D spacial experience with the conventional way of playing PES - indeed, it has a palpable sense of depth - it's just that you kind of want to feel really absorbed, rather than on the periphery looking in.

However, it's also impossible to play in any mode other than the traditional sideways-scrolling 'wide', thus negating the best visuals.

First up is Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 3D (PES 2011 3D to its friends), and the first thing that strikes us is that its use of the 3D screen is the best we've seen.
