PES 2018 Gamescom Preview

- Calum Parry

To begin, me along with others, saw a presentation that detailed out the major changes for this year’s release. This was very exciting for the Konami rep, as they were eager to explain that this year’s release is bigger and better and that they have listened to the feedback from the community.

 

Carrying on from last years’ entry, PES 2018 builds upon the impressive FOX Engine to craft a more immersive experience. The game has received an overhaul of both gameplay and presentation. This began with the improvements made to the gameplay, the team at Konami have focused on finely tuning and refining the gameplay with the Real Touch+ controls, which enhance the authenticity of the sport, with realistic player speed and control of the ball. Strategic Dribbling was also another focus, which further advanced how players can contextually protect the ball.
