With the release of J.League Jikkyou Winning Eleven in Japan on 21st July, 1995, Konami has today announced the first details of a 25th Anniversary campaign for the globally-recognised franchise, eFootball PES.
To start the campaign, Konami has introduced the “Iconic Moment Series”, an ongoing celebration of memorable moments produced by the finest stars of football, past and present.
Each Iconic Moment Series player will commemorate a specific highlight of their career, with the player card featuring an actual image from that match and stats to mirror that period. In addition, each Iconic Moment Series player or Legend will be affiliated to a specific team, with a stat boost available if you match that player or Legend with your chosen myClub team.
