Konami announced that PES 2021 will take the form of a 'Season Update', rather than a completely new game, so there are no major new features.
The new game is also expected to be released on the new Sony PS5 and Xbox Series X, but it is not clear if it will be a launch title on the next-gen devices. PES 2021 is available on PS4, Xbox One and PC.
You can see a list of the officially licensed teams that have been confirmed for on PES 2021. While they have lost the Milan giants, Konami has secured an exclusive agreement with Italy's capital club, Roma, meaning the Giallorossi will not officially appear in FIFA 21. Roma's stadium, the Stadio Olimpico which is shared with Lazio, was in FIFA 20 but will not feature in FIFA 21. Konami's agreements with Milan and Inter will not be applicable in PES 2021, so they will be known as Milano RN and Lombardia NA - the initials being a reference to Rossoneri and Nerazzurri. The exclusivity means that Juventus are known as 'Piemonte Calcio'in FIFA 20 and FIFA 21.Īrsenal is another club that will definitely feature as an officially licensed team after agreeing to extend their agreement with Konami for a further three years in 2019. Similarly, we can be sure that Juventus will be a key feature of PES 2021 because the Serie A giants agreed 'a long-term' exclusive partnership with the company in 2019. We know for certain that Barcelona will remain in the game as an official partner, having signed a new four-year deal with Konami in 2019. Konami has recently been increasing its number of licensing agreements and the company has landed several star attractions in the past few seasons, including Juventus, Barcelona and Manchester United.
