The first major content update from Efootball is postponed to the spring 2022

The stony start of Efootball has just become a bit rocky, since Konami has announced that the great content update of the game is postponed to the spring 2022 in November. The 1.0.0. Update should remove efootball from its initial demo style phase and add complete cross-icon between console and PC, new modes, and more, but this will be postponed next year.

In addition, Konami has canceled and reimburses all pre-orders for his Efootball 2022 Premium Players Edition, which would give the buyers a lead as soon as version 1.0.0. Update introduced by offering opportunities offerings to commit to top players. Despite the concept of pre-order for premium player, which was criticized at the announcement, Konami says that it is now considered, this premium edition closer to the new release date of Efootball 1.0.0.

Since orders for this issue of the game are now canceled, those who have purchased to download the basic version of Efootball again if you want to play the game in the current state.

It can certainly say that Konami s attempts to improve the gameplay on a new engine, along with the problematic, gradual introduction of his new free-to-play model, have led to a chaotic start of Efootball.

In his first roadmap for the game, Konami expected, until the winter, a full crosplay between consoles, PC and mobile devices, Battle passes, to start several modes and competitive esport tournaments.

The delay at UPDATE 1.0.0., Which was only the second stage of this three-stage roadmap, shows that Konami has perhaps more bitten with his ambitious rebranding of the PES series than it could chew. In order to have a chance to succeed, Efootball must be an incredibly sophisticated experience when it receives this big update next year.
