WORLD’S GREATEST CLUB COMPETITIONS BOLSTER PES 2015 LICENCE ROSTERS. DAY ONE UPDATE ALSO ADDS ROSTER UPDATE, NEW KITS, BOOTS AND ENHANCED FACES
Konami Digital Entertainment B.V. has revealed the full list of club and national licenses that will feature in its forthcoming PES 2015 title – including second-tier teams for the first time and all Brazilian top-flight teams. The publisher has also revealed content of an exhaustive day one update file that adds key new elements to the game.
The cornerstone of PES 2015’s licensed content remains the world’s greatest club competitions – which are exclusive to the series. The game features dedicated modes featuring iconography and branding for Europe’s UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League competitions, whilst the South American Copa Libertadores returns alongside the new Copa Sudamericana tournament. Asia Champions League features once again, rounding off a stellar list of club competitions only available in PES. Each of these licenses represents club football at its highest level, perfectly synchronizing with PES 2015’s ‘The Pitch Is Ours’ mantra, where development has focused on ensuring the game mimics the ebb and flow of real matches.
PES 2015 also introduces second-tier teams for the first time, with Spanish Liga Adelante represented in its entirety, as is the French Ligue 2. The team rosters have also been extended to English and Italian second-tier teams, albeit not in licensed form but with real players. These supplement the full Dutch Eredivisie, French Ligue 1, Spanish La Liga and Italian top-flight leagues, which are long-standing PES inclusions. The cream of European club sides are also licensed, and include pack star Mario Götze’s Bayern Munich; Portuguese giants FC Porto, Benfica and Sporting SP; and the likes of Anderlecht, Manchester United, Zenit St Petersberg, CSKA Moscow and Galatasaray.
The phenomenal growth of the South American leagues is also well represented, with KONAMI securing the full Argentine Primera Division and 21 Brazilian club teams with official kits.
KONAMI has also prepared a day one download for PES 2015, which will ensure that 93 new kits will appear authentically in the game, while eight more licensed teams have been added including Sparta Praha, FK Partisan, and Maccabi Tel Aviv. Additionally, the Brazil league will have six of its teams (Santos, Internacional, Vasco da Gama, Vitoria, Criciuma, and Chapecoense) updated to include an additional 109 of the athlete’s real names. An additional digital download will be available in December that will add 11 of the athlete’s real names to the roster for Flamengo; the December update will also include yet more teams in other leagues and bolster the stadia roster for the current generation of gaming systems. The day one download will also reflect all transfers and loans, and new boots from Puma and Nike will be added. Continuing KONAMI’s dedication to ensure the stars resemble and act like their real life counterparts, the day one update will include over 80 player feature updates as well.
PES 2015 will be available on November 13, 2014 for the PlayStation®4 and the Xbox One, PlayStation®3, Xbox 360 and PC.
