For simulation-football and team-building fans: the successor to PES offers step-by-step tutorials, Smart Assist, friend/co-op play up to 3v3 and weekly data updates.
Simulation football with team development, internet access and a large download. Coin-based loot boxes have country and age restrictions.
Football simulation controls with a Smart Assist setting: newcomers can dribble, pass, and shoot without complex commands; the step-by-step tutorial teaches the basics with practical demonstrations.
Team and player data updates weekly to reflect real transfers and match performances.
Editor’s tip
Try the step-by-step tutorial, compare Smart Assist with other control options, then explore available friend or co-op matches.
Weekly data updates follow the real football season; match length and daily playtime are unknown.
Free to download with Android ads and purchases. Loot boxes use eFootball Coins and have country and age restrictions: users under 16 with their account residence set to the US need parent or guardian consent.
Player development offers an Auto Select setting to develop players automatically - automation for team building, not for playing matches.
Online play with users around the world plus Friend Matches and Co-op Matches up to three a side.
