There are two football franchises in the videogame world- back in the PlayStation 2 days, Konami’s Pro Evolution Soccer (known as Winning Eleven in some parts of the world) used to rule the roost, until EA Sports struck out and stuck hard with its FIFA series of games, and all the myriad of licenses and accompanying game modes that accompany it. FIFA’s domination in the HD era was absolute- PES was more or less a non-factor.
However, since last year, Konami has been hard at work trying to get back into the game, with a resurgent PES 2014 being notably better than FIFA 14. Now, their next game in the series, which can either build on the successes of last year’s installment, or completely undermine them, is being teased, with a first look at the game being promised for this Wednesday.
Stay tuned to GamingBolt for all the coverage on this game- especially since this might be the year that, in a new generation of consoles, PES strikes back.
