It’s the game which promises to give you the chance to make legends – yep, Pro Evolution Soccer 2018, or PES 2018 as we prefer it, is now here!
PES 2018 is Konami’s latest attempt at doing a football game right. Going up against the might of EA and their stunning FIFA series year on year would no doubt take its toll on a lesser man, but Mr Konami and his team of technical wizards obviously like the challenge. And now they are back with the latest in the PES series of titles, a game which promises to see legends made.
With more feature improvements than any recent PES title before it, you should expect to see strategic dribbling, a new Real Touch+ system and overhauled set piece routines front and centre. With the usual myClub, Master League, Champions League, Europa League and more all in place, plus some of the best visuals ever seen on a football game, if you are serious about the beautiful game then this may well be the one for you.
UK gamers will need to wait just a couple more days for full release (14th Sept), but if you are in the North American region of our planet, you should be heading over to the Xbox Games Store and picking PES 2018 up right now. £54.99/$59.99 will see you picking up the standard edition, whilst the Barcelona centric £64.99/$69.99 version is also available.
Our full review will be with you very shortly too!
