Pro Evolution Soccer 6 is the latest release in Konami's hugely successful Pro Evolution Soccer franchise. Pro Evolution Soccer 6 was released on 27 October 2006 for the PlayStation 2, Xbox 360 and PC platforms. [1] The Nintendo DS and PSP versions will follow on the 1 December. Pro Evolution Soccer 6 is the 6th edition of the Series for the PlayStation 2, 2nd for the PSP and 4th for PC. This year features Pro Evolution Soccer 6 making its debut on the Nintendo DS and next-gen console, Xbox 360. A Bundesliga license was supposed to featured on the game but Konami were forced to remove the Bundesliga license, which means the Bundesliga will not be present in PES6, not even as a series of unlicensed teams.

The Xbox 360 version contains next-gen, Hi-Definition graphics and more animations, but gameplay similar to the console versions. The edit mode has been stripped down for the Xbox 360 release, due to technical restrictions. The graphics engine on the PC does not utilise the next-gen 360 engine but will again be a direct conversion of the PlayStation 2 engine.

In the UK Pro Evolution Soccer 6 managed to outsell FIFA 07's debut week by over 20 per cent – and while PES6 sold slightly fewer units on PS2 than its predecessor did last year, it succeeded in breaking Dead Rising’s week one Xbox 360 record. [2]

New Features

International Challenge Mode

This is the first time the International Challenge Mode has been included on the PES Series. Usually this is seen on the Japanese version Winning Eleven where you play as Japan, qualify them through to the International Cup and then attempt to win it. On PES however you have the ability to choose any playable Nation you want. The user can only play the qualifiers from Europe, South America and North/Central America. Although the tournament is not licensed, the qualifiers have a lot of similarities:

  • A cross-playoff is used between a South American team and an Oceanian team, and a North American team plays an Asian team.
  • There is the same number of qualifiers on the game from each region as there is in the real World Cup. e.g, 14 qualify from Europe.
  • The qualifiers from South America are the same - 10 teams play each other twice with the top 4 qualifying and 5th place entering the cross-playoff.
  • The qualifiers from North America are the same - 6 teams play each other twice with the top 3 qualifying and 4th place entering the cross-playoff.

Team selection can be changed before each game and the player can choose from any player with the elligable nationality.

Random Selection Match

Also new to PES6 is the Random Selection Match. In this mode the user has the ability to pick either 4 clubs/nations or 1 region to play as. Once selected the computer will pick a random selection of players from the selected teams or region for your playable team.


PES Shop

  • Players are available as always, but there have been many more added (all unlicensed, but based on real players). It's not only retired legends that can be bought either - Freddy Adu, who is 17, is available.
  • Costumes can be bought. The Ostrich and Raptor costumes have the players riding them. The Penguin costume has the player in a penguin suit.When riding the raptors, they shoot, header, control, pass and do all the hard work. But their shooting ability is much less than a normal player.

The Reebok Cup

The game is sponsored by Reebok, and the Reebok cup is an uneditable knockout tournament with 16 teams. The user does choose the teams involved (all teams are eligible) and one team can enter more than once. There is an impressive trophy awaiting the victor.

Network

Groups have been introduced on the PES Network. A player can join/create a group that can gain points by playing together. Groups can play each other in rival matches. If a players create a group, they manage who's in and who's out, the team name, who else can allow others to join and matches. A player can join a group by asking to join. If the leader accepts, they are in the group. Only ten are allowed in one group at first, but there can potentially be 30 in a group at one time.
