History of PES Stadiums

i just don't understand why we don't have all the stadiums that we had last year, like olympia stadium berlin and national stadium warsaw?
 
i just don't understand why we don't have all the stadiums that we had last year, like olympia stadium berlin and national stadium warsaw?

Licensing I would imagine. Those stadia were the venues for the Champions League and Europa league finals respectively, so their inclusion is clearly permitted as part of those licences. This year's CL final is at the San Siro (already included) and EL final is St. Jakob Park, Basel, hence why it's in PES.

I'm sure this is nothing you don't already know but it explains why certain stadia come and go (beyond Konami's usual bizarreness). Berlin Olympic stadium is probably under EA's grip so it's a venue that is normally not available to Konami. The Warsaw stadium is a strange one though. I can't imagine there would be any licensing issues with that one. But, you know, because Konami....
 
I hope that in 2017 version that they do a huge blitz in regards to stadiums. Even if we cant get licensed ones, enough generic ones to cover all different sizes of teams would be great.

Yeah that would be great, doesn't have to be licensed ones, just some generic stadiums that fit teams and their countries. Some typical english, spanish or italian stadiums to give us more variety. From small to big stadiums.

I am tired of playing every second game in the Konami Stadium, even though I really like this years version. I remember that some years ago I really hated it.
 
I have updated the 1st post up to date with PES 2017 data pack 2.0 stadium list. Link: https://www.evo-web.co.uk/threads/history-of-pes-stadiums.73912/

I believe they won't add more stadiums to the game, unless they decide to treat PS4/X1 users with the EL & CL final stadiums in some late patch in spring 2017.

If we look solely at the number 31, it would be the one of the better PES games in terms of stadiums.
But, if you are a PC user(like me), with 3rd year in a row having only 14 on PC, it is joint 2nd lowest after the first PES, which only had 8 stadiums.

Changelog
  • PES 2017 stadiums data pack/dlc 2.0 version added.
  • PES 15/16/17 stadiums separated by color. Red color means it's only available on PS4/X1, Black means it's available across all platforms.
  • PES 1 stadium list updated. Thanks to Dazzlà and Trainspotting90 --->>> link
  • PES 2008/2010 stadiums also separated by color. Red color is for exclusive PS2 stadiums, Black for those available via PC/PS3/Xbox 360. Some of the black were also available on PS2 i believe.
  • Added stadium creator under PES 11/12/13 as a +1 (editor had 50 stadium slots). The "Editor" in last few games doesn't count as it changes only a few textures on existing grounds. Also added Club House training ground which featured in the game from PES 3 thru PES 13.
  • Other minor updates, fixes, renames and addons.
What i still have missing:
-PS2 PES 2009 stadium list.
If the 08/10 PES on PS2 had more stadiums than the PS3/360/PC versions, i believe 09 also may have some exclusive ones. If someone can find a way to help out with this, please share your knowledge, so i can finally complete the history image. Whether a link YouTube video or some other way.

As for PES/WE/ISS games older than PES 1, i believe the stadium there aren't very significant to add to the image, as the graphics, gameplay or the stadiums themselves were not as good and developed as now.

And finally, i can't help but notice the whole 2008/09/10 extra stadiums for PS2 thing took a hit(among other things cut) on PS3/360/PC sales in a similar way the PC sales are hit in 15/16/17 with PS4/X1 stadium exclusivity, among the loss of other features. One can hope 2018 is the end of that, and that the PC base finally gets the same proper version of the game...​
 
Updated with PES 2019 and ePES 2020 with the latest patch. :BYE:

Amazing work. Had n't realise the big let down between 2014 and 2015. Also the let down from 2013 to 2014 was also impresive, almost -50% cut.
 
You should check the Japanese editions of PS2 games, where you can find lots of Japanese stadiums.
Btw, Nakhon Ratchasima reminds me of Busan Asiad Stadium?
