'Pro Evolution Soccer 2017' (ALL) Signs Partnership With FC Barcelona - Screens

by Rainier on July 26, 2016 @ 9:43 a.m. PDT

The focus of PES 2017 is the fun in playing against another player, and all the new features support this ethos.

Central to the new game is ‘Real Touch’, which authentically reproduces a wealth of ways to receive and control a pass. Different players use varying techniques and Real Touch mimics these using complex ball physics and subtle control nuances as the pass is met. The new system is then complemented with the advent of the new ‘Precise Pass’ system. Precise Pass extends the Real Touch basis of using the ability of the player with the ball to determine the accuracy of each pass. The movement of the ball in relation to the position of the player and the intended target for the pass all contribute towards its accuracy, adding a genuine feeling of excitement when a defence is split with an inch-perfect ball.

‘Control Reality' encapsulates the focus of this year’s product, taking the gameplay to a new level by achieving interactive reality in both control and its new standard of authentic visuals. The immersion in the game presentation and interactive, tactical elements enhance the experience for the player, as the product aims to maximize the fun in playing against any player in every way. The Fox Engine again powers the series to reach new heights across the large amount of improvements, and with PES 2017 users will be able to experience real football for the first time in a video game.


Konami has signed an Official Partnership contract with the renowned Spanish soccer club, FC Barcelona, that is to be effective across their soccer titles.

FC Barcelona is a soccer club founded in 1899 in Barcelona, Catalonia. It is now celebrating its 117-year history and is known to fans far and wide by the nickname “Barca”. Winning the UEFA Champions League 5 times and Spanish League 24 times, FCB is one of the best clubs in the world with over 145,000 Socios (members) widely spread across the globe.

The partnership will be featured in Konami’s title, PES 2017 scheduled for release on September 15, 2016, through element implementation, such as the club’s home stadium Camp Nou, and 3D photo-scanned player faces, such as Messi and Neymar Jr, making star faces and their expressions more realistic than ever.

The PES 2017 core concept, Control Reality will see gameplay improvements faithfully recreating the club’s artistic, magnificent style of play. The FCB signature style Tiki-Taka, the powerful “hymno”, the FCB classic (historical) kit data release, and Legend player appearances are some of the things Konami are planning to bring into the game to provide the best experience to the fans.

Customers are entitled to sign an FCB player who can be used in the widely popular PES mode myClub by pre-ordering the digital download version of PES 2017 through the PlayStation Store.
