Today Konami released a new set of screen shots along with a full 7 minute video of actual gameplay from Pro Evolution Soccer 2011. The video shows some gameplay from Germany vs. Netherlands and Argentina vs. Portugal. It also showcases the much improved graphics, the very cool celebrations, the excellent presentation and the new control scheme. I think this will get fans very excited for the next PES, check it out!

Pro Evolution Soccer hasn’t been the best soccer franchise for a couple of years now. EA’s FIFA franchise has done a lot to progress the soccer genre while PES was content with just adding slight improvements to each title. Now with FIFA pulling ahead PES is left playing catch up and this year they are looking to return to dominance. Konami recently announced that Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 is in development and set for a fall release across all platforms. For this year’s PES gamers can expect a lot of new additions and gameplay tweaks.

Over the past few years the FIFA series has been the soccer game of choice. Ever since EA’s recommitment to realism in the series, Konami has had a tough time keeping up with them. With every title released the PES series has felt more and more dated. Whether they were content with sticking to a proven formula created many years ago or whether they just couldn’t find a way to bring life back into the series, Pro Evolution Soccer has failed to deliver year after year. Going into PES 2010, Konami promised an overhaul of many features and in some aspects they have been successful. Graphically this is the best looking title in the series. In terms of game modes, Master League has never been better and they put the official UEFA Champions League license to great use; however with every couple of steps forward PES 2010 takes there is always something that makes them go back a step.
