The game has also been built to support crossplay across all platforms. It launches on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC this autumn, with a mobile version for both iOS and Android to follow shortly after.
The new eFootball, continuing the new brand introduced in 2019, is still developed by the same team behind PES (or Winning Eleven, as it's known in Japan) and has been rebuilt from the ground up in Unreal Engine. The Japanese publisher will launch eFootbal this autumn as a download-only game that it plans to expand over time, seemingly veering away from the annualised release schedule as well. Konami has made some dramatic changes to its long-running football franchise, dropping the Pro Evolution Soccer branding for eFootball and making the game a free-to-play affair.
