Is This the Year That PES Finally Defeats FIFA?

August 5, 2019

eFootball PES 2020

With a change in name to eFootball Pro Evolution Soccer 2020, PES is preparing for its yearly September battle with FIFA. It’s become a tale as old as time, as fans take to the internet and proclaim one is superior to the other.

Truth be told, PES has struggled to keep up with FIFA on the sales side of things, even when it’s been the superior game in every department. While its gameplay and graphics are normally superior, the lack of official licensing harms the title.

It was particularly evident last year as PES 2019 failed to make a splash and lost the coveted UEFA deal. What made it even worse was how FIFA 19 wasn’t remarkable, either, making little to not progress from the previous edition.

This year, though, the pendulum has swung in the favour of eFootball PES 2020. Not only has Konami secured partnerships with the top sides in Europe, but it’s also ensured that Juventus won’t be named Juventus in FIFA 20. That means all the Ronaldo fanboys will be raging and FIFA will finally taste the same medicine that PES has been subjected to for so long.

FIFA 20

Licensing aside, players were extremely vocal about the lack of developments in FIFA 19, with many stating they wouldn’t buy any further editions until EA Sports puts more effort into the title. Judging by the recent trailer, it doesn’t seem like EA Sports listened, since it looks like the exact same game we’ve played for the past three years. Of course, the demo could change this opinion once it’s released.

Across the pond, eFootball PES 2020 has put its best foot forward with its demo. There’s been a noticeable improvement in the gameplay, as the fluidity of play and ball dynamics reach a whole new level of realism. Much like you’re instructed to trap a ball when you first play football, the same holds true here. Blast a pass to your teammate and physics will play a pivotal role in the outcome. If he’s a highly skilled baller, though, he could turn it into an instant attack with a clever flick over the defender.

In terms of graphics, you’ll never want to waste another second looking at FIFA‘s half-baked player models again. From tattoos to wild hairstyles to trademark running styles, it’s all authentic here. You can see that time was spent on ensuring the players look and act like their real-life counterparts and not the Create-a-Wrestler models from WWE Smackdown! vs. Raw 2006.

Of course, the demo isn’t perfect. There’s a lack of commentary, so there’s no way to gauge if that will be an improvement while the AI is about as smart as an internet troll and you’ll dominate possession in every game. However, it’s expected that this will change with the official release and the option to adjust difficulty levels. They’re minor things that aren’t too hard to address or fix before the full release next month.

So, is this the year that PES defeats FIFA? Maybe not in sales, but it’ll certainly gain a few more fans with its impressive gameplay and graphics. There’s no way that any serious football-loving gamer can ignore it.

    I agree PES feels alot more realistic and highly superior on graphical and gameplay aspects. This time it really feels you are on the field. This is a must buy for me this year. Good byes forever for fifa from me. Allways hated EA money making tricks changing the menus and selling it as a new game…

    I played Pes 19 and I really don’t see the fluidity yall are talking about. U keep saying it’s a real life simulation and yet the tackles are very unreal and for some reason every player in the game lightning quick.

    PES need to upgrade in it’s formation because you can’t switch formation while please a match, the entrance need to be showing , the player name need to be writing on the shirt, and touch line manager and bench showing..and you need to adjust your own formation

    I’m not too happy with the demo. Same game as 19, same menus, only difference is a few new moves etc.. I’m a pes fan, don’t get me wrong but I’m disappointed. Hope the full release is better.

      Said the “ProGamer” are you blind they literally impleted FIFA STREET and changed the ball physics and many other things. PLease tell me what brings PES 20 new, and what brought PES 19 new, other than licenses being happy with 3 more licensed teams while fifa has every team in top 10 leagues except Juventus GG.

    Your not making sense . FIFA has been on the down since 17. PES is gaining ground , and FIFA’s gameplay has been god awful. Your paying full price for minimal updates.

    PES is too easy and pridictable with PES you slide tackle two minutes before the time and you can still catch him in the tackle, where as fifa is for the brave the ones who are in for a challenge basically what I’m trying to say is PES is for grade 7s will fifa is for them college kids…

      I’m a FIFA fan. I played PES 19 my only issue is the AI players reacting and tackling twice as your player. I usually beat Man City or Real Madrid with Watford or Crystal Palace on Legendary in FIFA 19 whereas I hardly defeat Liverpool or Man City with Barcelona on superstar difficulty. Heck even defeating Celta Vigo on Legendary is hardly possible because they’ll park the bus all game like they would in real life. I’ve got FIFA 18 n 19. I’m not getting FIFA 19 because of Volta or whatnot
      PES graphics ,ball physics and difficulty has made me fall in love with pes

    It doesn’t matter that PES is superior, Fifa fanboys will never defect or at least praise it for being the way better game since 2015!! And I am also happy EA is getting a little taste of their own medicine in the licensing dept!! I am loving the demo btw,gameplay is fluid as hell and I’ll be buying it as usual

    Honestly, FIFA is nonsense, PES is the king of gameplay. The only thing they lack is licences for some good leagues which I still see them getting at least in the next ten years.
