    Nothing can beat PES 2020 this year. Konami has created winner formula of high realistic and high graphics video sports game. The rival looks like old generation now. The best sports simulator game of all time. DOPE

    PES 2019 was close to perfect. I had not played a previous PES as much, until the day of the new release.
    And yet PES 2020 is a massive leap! Wow! The animations are exquisite, the passing feels better than ever, and the few issues on pitch PES 2019 had, have been resolved. The physical contact is more realistic as well. The graphics.. incrementally better in every aspect. Not only is    PES 2019 was close to perfect.

Great job Konami!    … Expand

    Finalmente a Konami parece ter entrado nos trilhos.

    PES pela primeira vez em mais de uma década me faz me sentir bem ao jogar um jogo da franquia. Nunca fui fã da série, mas atualmente é louvável a impressionante a evolução em relação ao rival de mercado que afunda cada vez mais na hipocrisia da EA Games

    Nice to drible and enjoyable! Better then ever, you can edit everything, flags, names, import images by usb. The game play is hard if you do not know how to play, but if you pass, know how send players ahead, drible and get position to shoot, it is easy.

    Best footy game of all time, a joy to play against the CPU or online and best of all with a friend face to face.

    The demo didn't tell the whole story, this is quite a big update for a game that usually is about incremental change. The first difference you notice is the scaling back of the pressing, now you must use it much more intelligently otherwise you will give away fouls. The passing has been given more variation and the ball has more weight to it with more spin.

    PES 2020 me fez voltar aos tempos antigos, lembrando muito o PES 2013 onde me divertia bastante, e esse sentimento voltou ao jogar PES 2020, a Konami acertou em cheio nesse novo game

    Physics still suck its the same game as pes 2017 that i owned. U cant release every year the same **** make something new in the end. And why does every time score a foul outside the penalty area when its free kick? How is that even possible in real life ...This is not football but ping pong.

    I'm sorry for those who complaints about the game is "different" from the demo last July. For me, Konami did a decent job about some issues from the demo and I'd must say it's the best PES yet.

Hopefully PES Development Team will fixed whatever issues that comes and kudos to them for developing such a stupendous game.… Expand

    Huge jump from last year for PES.

    The player motion is so fluid, and the weight of the players is just perfect. Feels like the shackles are finally off when dribbling, pace finally seems to matter this year. The CPU attacks in many ways, actually attacking with the dribble, as well as keeping a realistic amount of possession on the higher difficulty levels.

The CPU attacks in many ways, actually attacking with the dribble, as well as keeping a realistic amount of possession on the higher difficulty levels. The passing and shooting are as fun as ever, and this is probably the most "alive" the ball has ever felt in a footy game. Did I mention the games don't feel scripted?

    I'd certainly love more game modes, and some unlockables as incentives would be a welcomed touch, but the game play is phenomenal and from everything I've seen Master League looks incredible this year. Ideally I'd give it a 9.5, but since that's not an option I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt.

    Tip of the cap, Konami.    … Expand

    O ultimo PES que eu havia jogado foi o 2016, após isso só joguei FIFA, mas a EA só vinha cagando no jogo. Decidi ir de PES esse ano e não me arrependi, o campeonato brasileiro está muito bom, em relação as ligas não licenciadas, um option file resolve.

    El gameplay se siente más fresco y mejor desde hace años no sentía que un juego de fútbol se sientiese tan bien. Para mi sin necesidad de excesivas licencias y sobresitos, no necesita nada más que un buen gameplay, muy por encima del de FIFA.

    Unquestionably the best iteration of PES thus far and still the truest simulation of football to be found. The ball physics are a thing of beauty but the lighting, player physics and overall play is stunning.

    eFootball PES 2020 keeps all the merits of the series but lacks any significant breakthroughs. Still, it’s a good sports sim, especially in multiplayer.

    The 2020 edition is the most realistic virtual football I have ever encountered. After learning the gameplay’s basics you get a lot of fun and each passing hour makes it even better. Shame that after finishing the career, checking out the multiplayer and playing a few exhibition matches there is nothing left to do here. [12/2019, p.64]

    Fantastic improvements on and off the pitch, from licences to new gameplay refinements and a visual upgrade, ensure this year’s PES is the best it’s been for a generation. [Issue#168, p.82]
