eFootball PES 2021 Update rated by Australia Classification Board

Interesting. The Euro 2020 update for PES 2020 is supposed to be out this month as well, I wonder if that season update is related to the tournament being postponed to next year
I was just about to say, if that means they do really big revamped game on next-gen with lots of changes, this would be good. Certainly better than selling a half-assed update sold at full price.
They might do an update while they prepare a proper next gen version for next year.
The biggest fail in the history of PES was the transition they made in late 07 with 2008 so they might be looking to avoid it by giving the game longer in the oven.

Supposed to be out tomorrow
we published some exclusive pre-release England vs Spain EURO gameplay today showing official UEFA graphics, new kits, etc, at the new Wembley stadium:

as for the 2021 update hmmm will be interesting to see if this is a one-off given the current situation or even some free update for next-gen platforms, but I kinda dig the idea of sports games as "platforms" that get updates every season (and more often) and are not forced to release full games.

El Data Pack 7.0 llega mañana mismo, pero ya te podemos enseñar cómo sería un partido de la Roja en Wembley.

Euro 2020 should be included now.
It would kind of make sense, go low budget on 2021, so they can finally make the switch from Fox Engine to Unreal Engine for 2022 on the next gen consoles. Mobile is already running on Unreal.
The big question is: Would they allow players to keep their MyClub roster for the new season?

Given how last time they skipped the first year of next gen (PES 2014 came out just on PS3/360/PC, not PS4/XOne), I was expecting this.
I want a next gen only version. I have returned to pes series this year, don't make me return again to fifa.
Like I said on my previous post, I wouldn't expect a next gen version (or maybe just a port, honestly), PES skipped next gen last time when PS4/Xbox One released.
They're probably skipping a release this year to either revamp the Fox Engine (they have a lot of issues with the docs of the engine) or maybe do the fabled switch to Unreal Engine in two years (which they kinda hinted, and PES Mobile is in Unreal).
I think we would all be better off if sports games worked on a two year dev cycle for more substantial changes, with a data update every other year in between (even if there's a small charge).
It would be interesting if PES is switching to this, although I would expect it to be just a transition phase between gens - which they've struggled with previously.

I don't think they have the ressources to revamp the Fox Engine.
The change to a new one will take time, a lot of it. And they are always late. So I am not expecting a dedicated version either.

Not calling it PES 2021 directly is very weird though.
In fact, I was thinking the other day that, in general, it's really nuts that they haven't mentioned absolutely anything about a new game, not even a small tease or anything in Twitter. The game would come out (if it releases at the same time as the previous versions) in less than two months. I can't see this even existing at this point.
Anyone who makes a next gen only sports game needs to have their sanity checked.
No. The biggest mistake they made was not having a next gen version ready for the PS4/XB1 launch. Final nail that allowed FIFA to bury them for good.
Nah.
PES 2008 destroyed the near perfect reputation of PES.
The series struggled sales wise after that through the entire PS3/360 generation and it would always take a miracle to catch up after that.
I played tournament level PES and the series was absolutely untouchable on the PS1 (ISS Pro) and PS2. It was most likely the best sports game series in existence at that point.
PES 2008 somehow took a dramatic nose dive from which the series never fully recovered. The games have improved but the damage from that game to the series reputation was irreparable.
hopefully this isn't offensive (in terms of port begging) but man...I'd DIE for a Switch version.
PES is one of the few games that are still forcing me to tunr my ps4 on (sorry but the sitting in front of the tv isn't so simply for me, recently, and the on-the-go playability of the Switch is GREAT)
What I am saying is that I want a next-gen version (along with the last-gen version, I don't care). I don't like the absence of a next-gen version.
I want to buy a next-gen console to play next-gen games. Seems legit I suppose.
Ah ok, that makes sense.
Most sports games will have versions spruced up for next gen

I want a Switch version so bad. Looks like this year won't be it. The mobile version isn't all that bad but it's very Ultimate Team-ish and I'd rather be able to just play as normal teams
man this is true. not even kidding but PES 2008 made me regret my PS3 purchase and I left the console scene all together until the Switch.

Yep, this is pretty much confirmation.
Also, LOL at the description, apparently it's PES 25th anniversary and they're celebrating by not releasing shit, lovely lol

Probably not a popular opinion but I would be fine with this, both PES and FIFA could do with a couple years development process at this point.
FIFA sells 15-20 million copies with every entry. No way they are doing season updates
