Konami have today announced the launch of PES Manager for iOS and Android.
PES Manager comes as the global edition of World Soccer Collection S and is a clever football game utilizing intuitive and easy controls, showcasing realistic matches presented in 3D and with over 1,500 star player badges featuring real player pictures from across key EU leagues.
It is a rather simple, yet addictive title as players are tasked with collecting player badges, which are combined them to create a unique team of Europe’s top players. This team then evolves and can be improved as they compete in Challenge Matches, Skill Matches or League Matches, wherein victories result in additional rewards. These include unlocking new player badges, while players oversee their side’s rise to the top by managing the badges, harnessing the individual skills of each player, and earning in-game points you can use to improve the players and team.
Players can also enhance their team with the unique ‘Prize Draw’ system, with the ‘Normal’ and ‘Premium’ Prize Draws. The ‘Normal Prize Draw’ are drawn using Friendship Points which can be acquired as a reward for playing a match with other app users or as a gift from game administration; whereas the ‘Premium Prize Draw’ elements are one-off items requiring five Energy Balls, which are obtained via in-app purchase, as a reward for challenging matches or as a gift from in-game administration.
The player badges are represented with real images from the top players in Europe, detailing their abilities and stats. During matches, players can activate special abilities, which are represented through featured movement. The base player badges can also be combined with partner training badges to improve personal and team skills throughout the season, further enhancing the strength of the team. These actions are then seen within a realistic 3D format, where matches unfold on field as in a televised game. The real-time matches also lets users change their formations, make substitutions and adapt their tactics during the course of a game.
