After previous speculation that PES 2021 would simply provide a season update; it has now been confirmed by Konami themselves that this will indeed be the case.
Despite this, Konami state that they remain “extremely confident that this year’s game offers fans more than enough thrills to tide them over until our next gen title is ready for launch“, citing that the reason for this is so that they can really focus on their next-gen debut next year, bringing with it a new engine and substantial updates both to MyClub and to Master League.
So PES 2021 may not provide much of an update over PES 2020, but if Konami can get this next-gen release right then they may well be coming back bigger and better with PES 2022.
PES 2021 will retail at a special anniversary price of £24.99 and is all set for release on September 15th 2020.
