Christmas has come early! Well, on PES 2015 it has anyway as Konami have outlined a whole host of content, which will be making its way onto the game tomorrow (December 16) – just in time for the festive season.
First up is the the introduction of four new teams into the game; FC Bate Borisov, NK Maribor, Besikras and fresh from their recent UEFA Champions League heroics, FC Basel 1893. These four teams will be fully licensed within PES 2015 with correct kits, rosters and iconography all added.
Joining the four new teams will also be a further 73 player faces, adding to the raft of incredible player likenesses already in the game. These include key players from throughout the globe including José Callejón, Aaron Ramsey, Karim Bellarabi and Gerard Deulofeu as well as upcoming stars such as Luke Shaw, Iker Muniain and Rúben Neves,
All 73 players have been selected following community requests from all around the world – including PES Fan. More additions have also been promised so if you have any requests stick them down in the comments section below.
The content doesn’t end there however as extra official match balls have been added in the form of the official Adidas Pro Ligue 1 and Context 15, whilst 10 new boot styles have been added including models from Adidas, Umbro and Mizuno. These are joined by kit updates and enhancements, including those of River Plate, Estudiantes de La Plata and the German national side.
There’s also good news for those of you wanting more stadiums within the game as there are now four new stadiums in which to show off your skills on the pitch. These include the Estádio do Morumbi in Brazil, Saitama Stadium in Japan, El Monumental in Argentina and, exclusively to the Playstation 4 and Xbox One consoles, the Estádio Mineirão.
In terms of modes, data pack 2 brings some hefty updates to the brand new myClub mode. The biggest of this is the inclusion of a new event competition panel which will be added to the menu screen.
This contains a number of event competitions, which will each be open for a limited time only. These will see players matched online, in either one-off matches or tournaments with a scalable selection of rewards being given to the winning players. There’ll also be a tournament against CPU controlled users available offering the players the chance to win various rewards by winning tournaments against players of a similar ability to theirs.
The update – including all the aforementioned content – will be hitting PlayStation® 4, Xbox One™, PlayStation®3, Xbox 360™ and Windows PC on December 16 via a free download.
