The PS4 PES 2021 Pro Evolution Soccer Season Update is the latest installment of a successful franchise that dates back to the late nineties. It's widely considered one of the best soccer simulators out there and incorporates realistic AI and fluid animation to create a truly immersive gaming experience. As the latest edition to the series, the 2021 update builds on the foundations of its predecessors, adding new features, updates, and content to keep players immersed for hours on end.

From advanced ball physics to improved scenarios for player changes, the Pro Evolution Soccer series has always been one step ahead of its rivals, and the 2021 update continues this strong legacy. Gameplay is ultra real life-like, with players and managers exhibiting the same emotions and reactions to in game events that we'd expect from the real thing. Smooth dribbling animations, accurate passes, and field-shaping through passes means the game flows naturally. Despite the realism, there's still plenty of room for individual expression and experimentation, as players continue to tinker and master the game's deeper mechanics.

The Pro Evolution Soccer series also features extensive customization options and unexpected surprises for those performing well, ensuring the game stays fresh even after dozens of hours with it. That's further bolstered by the new Pro Evolution Soccer feature: a fully interactive training mode which allows players to hone their skills on both the field and the practice pitch. Unlocking skills, managing stamina, and customizing players are just a few of the options available

Those intent on creating their own perfect team, can take full control over their team with the MyClub mode, allowing players to create their own unique 11-man squad from a roster of real-world players or creating a custom team (complete with an original kit!) from scratch. As expected, MyClub also features an extensive trading system, allowing you to customize the team to your exact specifications.

All of this content and gameplay is packed into a visually stunning package, with understated yet striking visuals and animations that bring the action photorealistic life, furthering the immersive nature of the experience.

The PS4 PES 2021 Pro Evolution Soccer Season Update continues the series' already stellar reputation as one of today's most renowned and beloved soccer simulators, and is an essential download for any fan of the franchise. With its realistic graphics and animations, extensive customization options, and depth of play, the 2021 update goes beyond expectations, immersing players in a next level soccer experience.
