News by Wesley Yin-Poole Deputy Editorial Director Updated on 7 Sep 2021 48 comments eFootball gameplay is now online. The video below popped up on a Chinese YouTube channel called "GREAT GAME TV CHANNEL" in unlisted form, and as you'd expect the PES community is all over it. The video shows a full match between Manchester United and Arsenal, complete with cutscenes. It's definitely eFootball on a PlayStation console - the accompanying article at greatgame.asia suggests it was played on a PS5. It's worth noting a few things about this footage. It's not direct feed footage, and it may be a pre-release build - eFootball doesn't come out until 30th September. A few impressions from me: the pitch itself doesn't look fantastic (people are already laying into the grass), some of the animations appear a little janky and there are odd collisions, too. It looks like it plays pretty slow. The circle indicator around the selected player is huge, but I imagine you'll be able to turn that off. I hope so, anyway! It's hard to make a sweeping judgment without going hands-on, of course. Hopefully we'll be able to do that soon.
