This year’s PES title is one of the best in recent memory, but that doesn’t mean it can’t get better and today Konami have dropped the first Data Pack for the game.
Available today for Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS3, PS4 and PC (Steam) players to enjoy, the Data Pack brings many improvements with 100 new and updated player faces at the forefront of the action. Delivered as a result of Konami’s innovative 3D face scanning technology which has allowed them to replicate even the smallest physical details of a player, from their tattoos to the way their kit fits them, it’s great to see more players getting treated to improved looks.
Additionally, you’ll also find that the latest UEFA Champions League kits from teams such as Atlético Madrid and A.S. Roma are included, whilst this season’s latest football boots detail accurate branding and boot/lace colour combinations, and the Master League will see improved cut scenes.
Jonas Lygaard, Senior Director of Brand and Business Development at KONAMI, says, “We are thrilled at the global reception we’ve seen for PES 2018 so far. It has been the most successful PES launch to date and we’re glad fans of the game are impressed with the quality of the in-game experience we’ve been able to deliver.”
Lygaard continues, “Our promise to offer the most realistic and accurate experience for our PES 2018 players is evident in our Data Packs. Our continued determination to ensure every detail of the game reflects real life is clear in the detail in these packs which our dedicated team continues to improve on.”
Konami have also confirmed today that Data Pack 2 is already in development for PES 2018 and should be making itself known around mid-November.
PES 2018 is available for Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS3, PS4 and Steam and has received plenty of praise for delivering a superbly realistic football experience. If you haven’t already seen it, then our full review is well worth a read.
