This is on top of renewed partnerships with FC Barcelona and Arsenal, plus the various top league licenses including Italy’s Serie A.
Matchday, the brand-new mode announced at E3 2019, will also be added to the latest version of the mobile game, encouraging players to choose one of two sides at the start of each weekly event and contribute points towards their team’s overall success.
As with PC and console, significant enhancements have been made to the graphics and overall visual presentation in eFootball PES 2020 for mobile. Fully utilising the capabilities of UNREAL ENGINE 4, elements such as players’ motion, celebrations and looks have been made more realistic.
