Apr 25, 2022eFootball 2022 does show some signs of a great soccer-game after update 1.0.0. However the game remains very rough around the edges – not only on the pitch, but also when it comes to presentation.

Nov 16, 2021It may be free and as some of its aspects are concerned, fairly fun to play. But on the other hand, eFootball 2022 is plagued with horrible bugs and glitches, graphical monstrosities and outdated physics. As a whole, it is something you may enjoy in a short run. But in this state, if the game is not improved, Konami may change the price from “free” to “paying us back” – it still won't save the poor franchise.

Apr 28, 2022eFootball 1.0.0 version is a substantially better game than the one we got in september. However, it does little more than the bare minimum to actually be considered a game - what we had before was pretty much a tech demo. With an array of missing features and unforgivable absences in its game modes, as well as an improved yet inconsistent gameplay, eFootball is to PES what MK Dons is to Wimbledon FC.

Apr 27, 2022Yes, at least eFootball 2022 does now have a fully-fledged mode to take it past the point of being a demo, but it’s still lacking so much more than you’d expect from a 1.0 version of a game.

May 19, 2022eFootball 2022 in its latest version (1.0) shows some occasional glimmers of former PES glory, but it is still painfully far from being a full-fledged game, both in terms of features and gameplay, which is ruined by sluggishness, weak AI, poor animations and questionable physics.

Oct 4, 2021A disastrous start to the post-PES era. The only consolation? It surely can’t get any worse from here.
-
Oct 10, 2021Konami couldn't have chosen a worse way to bring its football franchise to the new generation, as eFootball 2022 seems more like a mobile game ported for PS5 and now Konami is facing an uphill battle to regain the trust of the community and come back from what could be the worst sports simulation in the history of video games.
-
Oct 3, 2021A shameful launch of a barely playable, graphically embarrassing game that shames the memory of PES and may have killed the new franchise before it’s even begun.

Oct 8, 2021eFootball debuts terribly with its new game as service model, but it's not its only problem: lacks of content and lots of technical and visual issues puts the new Pro Evolution Soccer far behind its own legacy. [Not recommended]

Oct 5, 2021Worst release ever. Looks like a poor mobile port for console and PC. Even alpha releases are better than this game. Stay away from it.

Oct 2, 2021Completely, totally, speechless. Today I bought FIFA for the first time in more than 20 years. Enough said.
