David Beckham Announced as Exclusive PES 2018 Legend

Konami just announced that former Manchester United and Real Madrid midfielder David Beckham will feature as a Legend in PES 2018 in an exclusive deal.

This will see five versions of the set piece specialist appear in the myClub mode of PES 2018 across different campaigns. Each version will each be from a key point of his iconic career (and feature his equally iconic hair cuts) including his formative years in England and time in Spain, Italy and USA. There will also be a version which represents his International profile for England for whom he won 115 caps including many as Captain.

Each version will use KONAMI’s proprietary scanning and animation systems to faithfully recreate Beckham’s playing style and abilities, including his unique set piece style as you can see from the below image.

Speaking about the partnership, Beckham described it as a “great honour to join the roster of legends that work with Konami as PES Ambassadors” before adding “I look forward to seeing my career represented in this fantastic game, and working with such a talented team of people who obviously love football as much as I do.”

The exclusive nature of this agreement will see David Beckham not feature in FIFA games in the foreseeable future
