    Konami, what are you thinking about? The PES series was about offline and mods and audiences around that. You spat in the face of all the fans of PES series. You have chosen money, you will have neither money nor audience. Burn in hell.

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

    I have been a fan for PES for 12 years, although there were some years that it was not good, but I can say this year is the worst. What the hell did they do with the gameplay? Terrible graphics and a lot of bugs. They did a really good job of 20 and season update 21, I thought PES is coming back after a long time had been taken over by Fifa. Konami totally ruined PES with their new ideas.I have been a fan for PES for 12 years, although there were some years that it was not good, but I can say this year is the worst.

Maybe the legendary PES has died with the name when it was changed to efootball. Expand

    This isn't even a demo! It's a broken alpha at best. Completely unplayable and broken.

    So the best microtransaction buyer wins... such a sh@t game. Anyone who thinks otherwise needs to just throw their console into a nearby river to save us all the trouble from future microtransactions. Devs are ruining today's gaming doing this.

    Worst football game I have ever played. Graphics are worse than pes 21, being free doesn't justify this. Would have paid full price for a decent pes.

    This game is industrial waste.
    If you like soccer games, try playing FIFA.

    This game is a mobile game, ported to consoles and pc. Konami had plenty time to develop the game with the new game engine. They killed PES and released this product.. Efootball is a joke and everyone knows it. Even nokami...

    AWFUL!
    Really, but really bad. Unplayable.
    They got everything that was weak in the PES series and brought it all back with tons and tons of bugs.
    Really, don't waste your time. It's free but your time is not.
    Congratulations, Konami. RIP Winning Eleven.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Well I tried to play this disaster on PS5, this is not a game, it's a poorly made prototype of something that went very wrong, it has PS4 graphics at the beginning of the generation, cement lawn with green paint, PS2 crowd, goal nets pixel wire, locked and broken gameplay, L2 button on defense is practically a button to give a fatality with judo, karate and boxing moves, passing system is horrible and the ball seems to weigh 50 kg, player movement is bad, faces and facial expressions, cut scenes with Frame rate low, Frame rate drops at various times such as the transition of foul, corner, penalty and goal kick scenes, there are no resources or tactical scheme options, there is no way to choose the player to take a corner, foul and penalty,5 generic tactics that replaced defensive, offensive and advanced tactics, Field positions no longer positively or negatively influence the player on the field eg neuer is over 90 in any position whether goalkeeper or attacker, there is no AI in CPU controlled, players they're all dumb and with no understanding of what to do on the field, a judge who once scored fouls in any play now he's a figurehead not scoring any fouls in UFC-like moves, it's the worst attempt ever made in a football game at all times.

    Con diferencia la peor experiencia que he tenido con un juego de fútbol después de más de 8 años de comprar aunque fuera uno al año, literalmente si hubieran copiado y pegado el código de PES 2021 y simplemente lo vendieran como un juego nuevo definitivamente me hubiera gustado más

    Awful, plays like a mobile game.

    Absolutely loved PES 20 and 21.

    Played 4 games, deleted and then purchased FIFA. FIFA has absolutely awful defensive ability, but at least I am playing a next gen not mobile game.

    I'm pretty sure my PS5 can do 8k in resolution but, the graphics in this game are straight from PS2

    Очередной мусор от Konami, думали сделают конкурента FIFA и легких баксов срубят, к успеху шли пацаны, не получилось, не фортануло. ДЕЛАЙТЕ SILENT HILL'S, ВЕРНИТЕ КОДЗИМУ !!!

    Far away from perfect but good progress with latest update.
    Still looks like a demo. Gameplay have some response issues to change between defence - offence, especially in collusions
    Pure goalkeeper AI time to time and many autogoals b

    Konami, for reasons only they know, have decided to abandon the name Pro Evolution Soccer (PES) in favour of what they are calling e-football. Unfortunately they’ve scored an own goal from the very start, and it’s hard to see them ever recovering.

    Barely playable at launch, the latest patches do ensure it at least plays a pretty good game of football now, but there are still just so few

    Barely playable at launch, the latest patches do ensure it at least plays a pretty good game of football now, but there are still just so few features and options (outside of the online mode seemingly designed solely to take your money) that within an hour or so you’ll be left wandering what you’re supposed to do.

    A pre-alpha release.
    With the hype before is this a joke or what?
    Any testing before release? Or is this release a test in itself?

    No no no!

    In an 100% unfinished game, the only option you have is playing against opponents that most of them are GRANDFATHERS if not dead. Kahn, Beckenbauer, R.Carlos, Beckham, Owen, Romario. PUKE. Just name it eFootball back to past or time machine. And you don't have any option to avoid those pay to win players. NO. PUKE. I won't comment about the AWFUL lag on online matches most of

    eFootball 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.

    eFootball 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.

    Yes, 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.
