Player form will also be updated and refreshed as part of Konami’s weekly update files.
Also implemented in the update will be new French Ligue 1 and Ligue 2 kits, kits of the top two Spanish leagues and new Serie A Italian kits.
Other clubs to gain official kits include FC Groningen, FC Utrecht, Galatasaray, Panathinaikos, Maccabi Tel Aviv, Flamengo, Palmeiras, Independiente, Newell’s Old Boys and Vélez Sarsfield.
A number of dedicated kits for UEFA Champions League and Asian Champions League have also been added.
More than 70 players have also been updated using the PES ID system to bring new realistic models to the game. Updated player likenesses include Luuk de Jong, Yevhen Konopolyanka, Jordon Ibe, Danny Ings, Joshua Kimmich, and Burak Yilmaz.
