PES 2021 is almost here, and players are getting impatient waiting for the update to drop. This time around, PES has taken a different approach towards its new edition for the game. Previously, the franchise would go for a traditional flagship release for the game, but that doesn't seem to be the case now.
PES 2021 has chosen the way of a season update instead of a whole new game for the latest edition. This choice has been made by Konami because they have been targeting the launch for a next-gen PES game for the next-gen consoles coming out this fall. This next-gen game will be a reality in 2021. For now the PES 2021 update for PS4, Xbox One and Mobile goes live on the 15th of September.
