Après les rumeurs qui courraient ces deniers jours, Konami vient de confirmer que PES 2021 sera une « simple » mise à jour du dernier opus sorti l’année dernière. Pour le moment nous ne connaissons pas le contenu de cette grosse update mais on peut s’attendre bien évidemment à des effectifs d’équipes mis à jour comme les visages des joueurs, les maillots, les stades, etc,… Est-ce qu’il y aura de nouveaux modes de jeu ? Cela semble peu probable avec tout ce qu’il y a déjà dans PES 2020 mais on ne sait jamais. En tout cas, l’éditeur japonais a annoncé que l’update sera lancée à prix réduit.
Mais Konami a surtout dévoilé les premiers détails concernant PES 2022. Fini le FOX Engine puisque désormais la licence sera développée sous Unreal Engine. Des modélisations de joueurs plus réalistes, plus d’animations, une meilleure physique, des graphismes photoréalistes et plein d’autres choses seront au rendez-vous. Vous en aurez un premier aperçu dans le teaser présent ci-dessous.
Taking PES to a Whole New Level
|
As the industry stands at the precipice of an exciting new generation of consoles, we believe that now is the perfect time to share some of our plans for the future of the PES franchise with you. To that end, we are excited to announce that we are hard at work on a next-generation football title that aims to truly embody our core concept of “The Pitch is Ours”. This title is being developed with an updated engine that will enable us to dazzle you with staggering improvements to all areas of the game. Expect more realistic player models and animations, enhanced physics, photorealistic visuals, and much much more. We recognize that many of you are enthusiastic for new myClub and Master League content, and we are also excited to share that large updates are in the works for both of these modes. However, the sheer scale of everything we are aiming to achieve for our next-gen debut has made it necessary to pare back our efforts in other areas of development. As a result, we have made the decision to launch this year’s PES as a streamlined offering in the form of a “season update”. That being said, we are still extremely confident that this year’s game offers fans more than enough thrills to tide them over until our next-gen title is ready for launch. This year also marks a quarter of a century since the very first PES title was released. To commemorate this important milestone, and more importantly, to show our gratitude to you, our loyal fans, we are pleased to announce that this year’s PES will launch at an affordable anniversary price and will also come with several bonuses. Currently, we aim to begin testing of our next-gen title sometime in mid-2021, with an estimated release date later in the same year. Until that time, we hope to see you back on the pitch in this year’s season update. Look forward to more news regarding our next-gen project closer to release. The PES Development Team |
