Other changes include a new weather system, which is not just going to have cosmetic implications – it’s also going to affect the gameplay in some ways, such as rain changing how the ball flies through the air and more.
Some players seem skeptical of those changes, but others are excited about having even more immersion in the game and getting a feeling like they’re truly playing on a live terrain and not some stiff computer-generated arena.
Meanwhile, Konami have recently announced that they now have a license for Euro 2016, although it’s been announced that the new content won’t be featured in “PES 2016”, but rather in a separate title that the studio is considering right now. They could have done both, but the option of giving Euro 2016 its own game seems to make more sense.
More likely, Konami might decide to make a standalone game to feature their newly acquired licensed content, which would make sense from both a financial standpoint as well as in terms of pleasing their fans. Those who want a dedicated Euro 2016 experience will be able to get it in its own game, while “PES” fans will get more of what they like without worrying that their experience might be undermined by the studio focusing on other aspects.
