It's probably been mentioned, but eFootball 2022 is already in my game library, as 'New Football Game Online Performance Test' has officially transitioned into it.

I wish Konami could license their code to someone who wants to make a single player game. and then you get the best of both worlds, single player game not limited by design for online

Now you are telling me that Online demo is actually the console version? I thought it was for mobile. I’m shocked, absolutely shocked.

In steam you can find the PC specs that are needed.
Konami, where can I get my next gen version from €Football? I ask, because this aren't any nextgen riquerements. So maybe you can help me?

That is so true.It's a card collecting gambling game under the disguise of football.

Yup, I'll take that one on the chin.
But that is because I genuinely though there was going to be some kind of quality control and enough integrity from a company to not straight up lie about their online performance test being a functional vessel to test an environment rather than an unpolished placeholder with a different name and UI to the final product.
Yes, I know it's Konami but god damn, I wasn't expecting this launch to be this shambolic.

That CPU is a year and a bit older than what was required for PES 2021, and so you have to wonder where they found the extra CPU budget and what will suffer as a result. Interested to hear from the pro game developer who said mobile crossplay wouldn't have any limitations.

Given the clearly incomplete status of the game so close to 'launch', so much that the couldn't even have 3D grass in the PS5 demo in Hong Kong less than a month before launch, it's clear that this 'full game' is not only a demo but a rough one around the edges. There are simply too many gameplay features 'waiting for updates', which is pretty much unacceptable without even having the 2-3 year development context.
That said, there are quite a few brand new gameplay elements that are worth getting excited for, especially for FUMA players. I like the direction the gameplay is heading, towards giving more control to players and removing assists. Despite it launching in such a miserable status, I think it's worth getting on board from the get go to get used to the new mechanics.
I made a video about the new improvements spotted in haphazard Japanese articles, leaked footage etc:

Interview with Robbye Ron, brand manager eFootball for Latin America
eFootball will mean a "tremendous" change with respect to PES: "It's a different game, people have been asking for it"
By: Fernando Chuquillanqui

The announcement of eFootball and, with it, the end of the Pro Evolution Soccer saga ( Winning Eleven , in Japan) shook the video game industry and particularly hit the Peruvian community, perhaps one of the last bastions of the soccer saga in the world. world.
The new Konami franchise represents a resounding change with respect to previous installments ( Programer's friends have made a good summary about it ), since we are not only facing a new business model, but it seeks to establish its own rules at the playable level .
Will it be a welcome change for the community? Is eFootball here to stay? Will PES return eventually? This week I had the opportunity to talk with Robbye Ron, brand manager eFootball for Latin America, who responded to these and more questions in this extensive interview.
We already have the eFootball release date . What are the expectations for the start of this new saga?
Expectations are very good. The change is tremendous, but at the same time it is a change that people have been asking for. To do the evolution, we needed to do a hit like that. We needed a new engine and we got it with the Unreal Engine (4), which has facilitated this issue of being able to play on different platforms that we did not think to do.
Will it be a shocking change for those used to the gameplay of Pro Evolution Soccer ?
The user, who has already played it, is going to have that shock of the first days, of 'what is this? I don't get used to it. ' Literally, I had to stop, start to see how this was done, how the other was done, understand the tutorials. It is much more simulator, but that does not mean that the fun ends.
eFooball comes with nine teams at launch and just three game modes. Isn't it very little content?
It is a free-to-play game. If we compare it with PES 2021 , yes it is little (content). But it is another style of play. This is like a demo for us, for people to start learning. People need to begin to understand. It is a tremendous change and I think it is necessary to understand this version. When more content comes in, they'll be ready.
When will eFootball stop being a demo?
It is comparative to a demo, but it is not a demo. We have already shown the roadmap that this game has, and we will see that at the end of this fall (spring) we will have an update in which more teams will be added and you will be able to start creating your team from scratch, with new cards; start using eFootball coins .
With the launch of eFootball , is FIFA no longer your competition?
We are talking about being a platform, we do not even consider ourselves as a game in itself, an annual game. Our idea is to be the soccer ball. We want to be the platform and, therefore, we are available on all devices. The rival has its own strategies, I imagine, but we are more concerned with how to improve our platform, so that it is number one in sports users, especially virtual football.
Why not launch eFootball on Nintendo Switch?
We have seen that the Unreal Engine is helping us to make this multiplatform game, so a future possibility is much closer. But today is what we have, hopefully in the future we can have it.
So, the doors are not closed to the Switch.
The possibilities are never closed to anything.
It has already been announced that the Master League, one of the star modes of the extinct PES saga , will come to eFootball , but it will be paid content. Is it the only game mode that will be released?
We are going to have to see what all the modes that are going to come will be. There will be, of course, some (modes) free and others paid. That will be normal. The idea is to give the user something for everyone. If you don't want the french fries with the hamburger, then let them sell you the hamburger alone.
Will the clubs and teams we had in PES eventually appear on eFootball ?
They will eventually arrive in an update, of course. They will come in the future. Not such a distant future, so relax.
Will they arrive for free?
They will arrive free of charge.
Can you be sure that clubs or teams will not be sold for real money?
No, they are not going to be sold, of course not. Letters and other things, legends of each club, of course, can come in a campaign type. But the players that we already had as always in previous releases will come for free.
Will there be Edit Mode? Over the years an immense community of fans who edited PES was formed . Is there a chance to see any of that on eFootball ?
Yes, of course. The Edit Mode is maintained. What happens is that today it is not necessary, because only nine clubs come and all nine are licensed. When (the teams) are updated, the Edit Mode will also arrive.
Free?
Free.
Will the alliances with Peruvian clubs continue in eFootball ?
Of course, they will appear.
Is the Peruvian tournament license still being evaluated or has the idea of having it in eFootball been abandoned ?
It was not abandoned. The licensing team continues to work to maintain the licenses that exist, and why not add many more in the future. The team keeps working. Let's wait for news on the licensing issue. There are things that, due to this new business model, will not have to wait until next year to enter the game.
Will Latin American storytellers continue on eFootball ?
Yes, there are all the narrators that we had. They made a recording and the ones we had in Mexico, Argentina and Chile remain. Our languages will be from the start.
And will the great Jon Kabira also be there?
Of course it is there, so relax.
Many PES fans liked to collect their physical records and even search for the special editions. Will there be a physical edition of eFootball ?
For now, it was only announced that the game will directly be digital. But different markets are always studied and it will be the fan who asks for this type of content. It is still being evaluated. For now, the only way we're going to get out is digital.
With the launch of eFootball , do we say goodbye to PES forever?
Nothing is forever. We don't know what the future holds. But this is a game created by the same producers that made Pro Evolution Soccer . When you start to play it, you will feel the difference, it is not a continuity. But what does continue is the team, trying to make a soccer simulator game.
So, it is not ruled out that the PES saga can eventually return ?
I am not saying that it is not discarded or discarded. It would be impossible to tell you anything. We are focused on eFootball. What will happen in the future? I do not know.
To close: what would you say to the bulk of the community that is in doubt about this new saga?
My words is give eFootball a chance . It is a different game, it is a game that has its affection, that has its nice things, but you need to learn to play it. It's a new platform, it's new content, it's free-to-play, which invites you to play it without spending anything. I have no doubts that the user will accept it, because the game has that realism on the court that every player who comes with that DNA of Winning Eleven , from PES , will feel it at the time. The love will come easily.

one brazilian mid/small youtuber showed his steam saying that 800 friends had bought already. He have like 20k subs
in brazil the price its like R$ 200. For comparison brazilian minimum salary per month its R$ 1000.
more than half the ppl lives with less than R$ 1500. This its where the mobile appeals comes in and the gambling shenaningans become dangerous
its a country with a huge PES fanbase (football i dont even have to say it). And many ppl who were fans of the old games and dissatisfied with current games
1 euro = R$ 6.20
1 dolar = R$ 5.25
Yeah, the game is clearly incomplete. Football games aren't magically exempt from delays unfortunately just because they usually release near the start of each season. This is no criticism of the start of your post by the way. I get the frustration. The game is clearly behind schedule for whatever reason. I day Covid plays a part, others will disagree. I don't believe anything has been said by Konami though, so maybe the limited nature of the game on release day was always their plan.
I agree with you regarding the gameplay. Despite the beta being incredibly clunky, I could still glimmers of hope like the points you mentioned. As you said, it did have a leaning towards manual players. On PES 20 I struggled as a manual passer against PA1 or above players. My first PA1 game I played as a test I won 3-0 comfortably. I'm not a bad player on manual passing, it's just PA1 is so over assisted that you don't really need to pay much attention to what you're doing. On the beta, I was beating assisted passing players as they didn't have laser guided passing anymore.
Thanks for posting that. An encouraging read!

Are you suggesting that people from Brazil can't work out what paid for content is? That's a very insulting generalisation you're making if that's what you're implying. Apologies if I've misread your post.
