While Electronic Arts unveils the next-gen version of FIFA 21 today on Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and PS5, Konami is offering PES 2021 owners the Data Pack 3.0. This is indeed what he announces in an official press release, taking the time to slide a trailer that presents the content. As usual, 85 player faces have been created or updated, 100 teams see their jerseys adjusted, not to mention the Iconic Moments Series players which are emerging:
- Frank Lampard (iconic match: 04/30/2005)
- Petr Čech (iconic match: 19/05/2012)
- Johan Cruijff (iconic match: 03/01/1978)
- Patrick Kluivert (iconic match: 02/02/2002)
- Karl-Heinz Rummenigge (iconic match: 09/27/1980)
- Franz Beckenbauer (iconic match: 08/05/1976)
- Lothar Matthäus (iconic match: 11/21/1992)
Among the other additions present in this Data Pack 3.0:
- Appearance of Camp Nou, home of FC Barcelona, updated
- Russian Premier Liga 2020-2021 Winter Ball added
- Five new pairs of adidas shoes (Copa 20+ Motion Blur, Nemeziz 20+ Motion Blur, Nemeziz Messi 20.1, Predator 20+ Motion Blur, X 20+ Motion Blur) and a new pair of NIKE shoes (PHANTOM GT ELITE)
It is recalled that PES 2021 is only a simple update of PES 2020, Konami having preferred to prepare in the best possible way the arrival of the series on next-gen consoles with PES 2022. The game will use Unreal Engine instead of the Fox Engine, and testing will begin in mid-2021 for release later this year.
