Konami’s Pro Evolution Soccer 6 for Xbox 360, PS2, and PC will hit stores on October 27, with the PSP and DS versions to come “shortly after,” says Konami. The latest version of the much-loved soccer title is still boasts its realistic gameplay and has undergone significant enhancements. Series creator Shingo “Seabass” Takatsuka has successfully refined the game’s shooting system, and the AI has been upgraded; players wihtout possession of the ball now run into and point to a position where they could receive a pass and continue the attack. In addition, players must now work to turn defenders upon receiving the ball, and the defender, in response, must back off a bit to prevent being turned.
Other new features include the following:
- international rosters now feature official kits for the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, and Italy
- more balanced, animated referees
- International Challenge: lead your home country through entry and tournament rounds
- Random mode: players engage in quick games with randomly generated match day settings
- full 11 vs. 11 play means 22 individually controlled players
- improvements to Master League mode
- far more realistic ball physics than ever before
- more physical play between players
- increased player animations: players pound grass after a missed shot, defenders appeal for offside calls, incredibly accurate player-specific dribbling styles
