The game is aimed at soccer fans seeking a tactical, simulation-focused alternative to other sports titles.
help eFootball PES 2021 FAQ
Is eFootball PES 2021 just a roster update of PES 2020?
Yes, Konami explicitly marketed eFootball PES 2021 as a 'season update' rather than a full new game, meaning it uses the same engine and core gameplay as PES 2020 with updated player rosters, transfers, and kits. It was released at a lower price point than typical annual sports releases as a result.
Why didn't Konami release a completely new PES in 2020?
Konami chose to release PES 2021 as a season update because the development team was focusing resources on transitioning the franchise to the new eFootball platform, which launched in 2021 as a free-to-play title. This made PES 2021 the final entry under the Pro Evolution Soccer brand name.
Does eFootball PES 2021 include Master League mode?
Yes, eFootball PES 2021 includes Master League and Become a Legend modes carried over from PES 2020, since the game is built on the same foundation. The myClub mode is also present with updated player data for the new season.
