Konami and Inter Milan team up for latest PES partnership

-

They’ve already got Barcelona on board, and have a lovely tie-in with Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund. Now though Konami are going all Italian as they announce a new partnership with Inter Milan.

Yep, Inter Milan are the next club to team up with Konami, giving them the go-ahead to ensure that the club is represented brilliantly in PES 2018. That means you’ll be seeing the likes of Mauro Icardi, Roberto Gagliardini, Eder Citadin Martins and Antonio Candreva implemented with an incredible level of detail that ensures their playing styles, on and off-the-ball movements, and tactical abilities are instantly recognisable within the game. A free update to bring the Inter way of life to PES 2018 will be applicable shortly after the game releases on 14th September 2017.

myClub mode in PES 2018, as well as the Konami mobile titles will also benefit from the new partnership and you’ll see Inter icons Javier Zanetti, Dejan Stanković and Francesco Toldo added to the ever expanding in-game legend player roster. There will be more announced soon too.

Konami will also be given extensive access to implement the San Siro stadium in intricate detail, delivering a wealth of audio content to recreate the sounds, cheers and chants heard during a home game to reproduce the electric atmosphere of an Inter match.

Inter boast a stunning heritage, having been ever-present in Italy’s top flight since their formation in 1908. Since then, Inter has won over 30 domestic trophies, including 18 league titles – with five back-to-back successes between 2006 – 2010 culminating in a treble-winning season in 2009 – 2010. The club also has an enviable record in Europe, winning the UEFA Champions League in 2009 – 2010, to add to three previous UEFA Cup wins – the predecessor to the current UEFA Europa League.

“We are delighted to welcome KONAMI as our new Global Football Video Game Partner,” said Michael Gandler, Chief Revenue Officer of FC Internazionale Milano. “It is a leading company in video games development and, with its world-renowned PES series, our fans will have the chance to fully experience our match day. The goal is to integrate Konami’s content into our game day and digital experiences to enrich our fan engagement.”

“Inter is a club of incredible heritage and reputation,” commented Jonas Lygaard, Senior Director – Brand & Business Development for Konami Digital Entertainment B.V. “They have been a focal point of the Italian top-flight since their formation, and have an enviable roster of playing greats – both past and present. KONAMI will honour this history with a game that perfectly showcases Inter’s exciting style of football and the abilities of the talented player base it has. We are committed to working with the greats of the game, and Inter is a true giant.”

PES 2018 will be released on Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS3 and PS4 come September 14th 2017. A Steam version will also arrive whilst our full review will be with you shortly.

An Xbox gamer since 2002, I bought the big black box just to play Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee. I have since loved every second of the 360's life and am now just as obsessed with the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S - mostly with the brilliant indie scene that has come to the fore. Gamertag is neil363, feel free to add me to your list.
