Confirmed: PES 2021 to Be Released as Digital 'Season Update' Only
Jul 11, 2020, by Pat
Update: PES 2021 will be released as a content update for PES 2020, otherwise retaining the same features and gameplay. This was confirmed by a listing that appeared on the Microsoft Store last night.
Celebrate 25 years of PES with the eFootball PES 2021 Season Update* - available at a special anniversary price!
The eFootball PES 2021 Season Update features the same award winning gameplay as last year’s eFootball PES 2020 along with various team and player updates for the new season. Also comes with the UEFA EURO 2020™ mode - all at a special anniversary price!
Update: Following Australia, the South Korean Game Rating and Administration Committee has also started to list 'eFootball PES 2021 SEASON UPDATE' (via @JVC_PESForum). The applicant company, Uniana, is a publisher that works with Konami in South Korea.
PES 2021 could be released as a digital update to PES 2020 instead of a full game in an interesting twist.
As reported by gamereactor.es and altchar.com, the Australian Classification Board has published an entry for PES 2021, curiously named "eFootball PES 2020 Season Update".
This name has got the PES community worried that there will be no full-fledged PES 2021 launched but instead just a digital update that would bring the latest squads and kits to PES 2020.
It's a multiplatform release with an alternative name "PES 2021" and the listing includes the usual features like online interactivity and in-game purchases.
One possible reason for this move, should it turn out to be true, could be the coronavirus and the big influence it has on the workspace as well as companies financially. It would also give the team more time to work on the first PES entry on the new console generation, which would be PES 2022.
Stay tuned for updates as this story evolves.
In other news, the official PES 2020 Euro 2020 DLC will be released today!

"Leak Or Not To Leak": Adidas Playfully Teases Juventus Kit Releases
Adidas Football has taken a cheeky and self-aware approach to modern kit culture by leaning directly into the world of shirt leaks. In a teaser shared across social media captioned "LEAK OR NOT TO LEAK, that’s the question", the brand presented a mock confidential desktop interface styled like an internal investigation into unreleased gear.
The desktop graphic features folders and case files centered around upcoming Juventus kits for the 26-27 campaign. Several genuine product codes are highlighted in the mockup, including KC2294 for the Juventus authentic third jersey and KR4646 for the pink away shirt. Surrounding these are playful folder labels such as "PRE-RELEASE LEAKERS" and "PERSONS OF INTEREST", along with mock file thumbnails referencing kit sightings, club mascot leaks, and questions over whether star youngster Kenan Yildiz leaked upcoming jerseys.
Rather than attempting to suppress early kit leaks, Adidas is embracing the surrounding fan culture and online discussion. By turning pre-release anticipation into an interactive campaign, the Three Stripes have found a clever way to generate excitement ahead of the official launches.

Paris Saint-Germain have officially confirmed their squad shirt numbers for the 26-27 season following the conclusion of the summer transfer window. The French champions revealed the updated roster graphic displaying the club's official numbering across their classic Hechter-inspired home kit and goalkeeper jerseys. This graphic was created by @gollofootball and was officially used and posted by PSG.
The list highlights several new arrivals and notable number assignments across the squad. New signing Ferran Torres takes the number 9 shirt, while fellow additions Maghnes Akliouche, Lucas Digne, and Mika Godts take numbers 11, 12, and 22, respectively. Key figures retain their established shirts, including Khvicha Kvaratskhelia in the number 7 and Ousmane Dembélé wearing number 10, alongside core regulars such as Marquinhos (5), Achraf Hakimi (2), and Vitinha (17).
Between the posts, Lucas Chevalier wears number 30 alongside Alessandro Longoni (16) and Matvey Safonov (39). Midfielder João Neves retains his distinctive number 87, while Warren Zaïre-Emery continues with number 33 for the upcoming campaign.
Muangthong United 26-27 Away Kit Released
Thai club Muangthong United have revealed their new away kit for the 26-27 campaign, crafted once again by local brand EGO Sport.
The Muangthong United 2026-27 away jersey introduces an ultra-clean, classic look. Built on an off-white base, the shirt features bright red accents on the polo-style collar and sleeve cuffs. All logos, including the club crest on the left chest, EGO branding, and long-time main sponsor Yamaha across the front, appear in monochromatic red.
Sleeve sponsors such as AirAsia and LEO round out the design, maintaining the red-and-white aesthetic throughout the entire kit.
Nike Sabrina 4 Outsole Sparks Comparisons to Ezeta Logo
Nike has unveiled the latest colorway of Sabrina Ionescu's signature basketball shoe, the Nike Sabrina 4 "The Switch". While the sneaker stands out with its vibrant blend of desert pink and lemon venom tones, a detailed look at the outsole has caught the attention of the football kit community for an unexpected reason.
The shoe's traction pattern features an intricate array of small, angled rubber lugs designed to deliver multi-directional court grip. However, numerous fans and followers noticed that the shape of these individual traction nubs looks remarkably similar to the geometric emblem of Italian sportswear brand Ezeta, prompting many to message the label's founders about the resemblance.
While the outsole pattern is undoubtedly Nike's performance-oriented traction engineered around Sabrina's signature identity, the visual likeness to Ezeta's mark is striking. Do you think this is purely a coincidence, or a curious case of parallel design?

Unionistas de Salamanca 26-27 Home & Away Kits Released
Spanish Primera Federación side Unionistas de Salamanca and technical partner Erreà have officially unveiled the club's new home and away kits for the 26-27 season. Staying true to the club's fan-owned ethos, the designs were chosen directly by club members through an open design competition and multi-stage vote.
The Erreà Unionistas de Salamanca 26-27 home shirt stays true to tradition with a half-and-half black and white design, accented by subtle tonal vertical pinstripes across the front. Bright yellow trim details the collar and sleeve cuffs, while the back features a clean white panel with fine pinstripes to host player names and numbers.
Taking a bold and creative direction, the Unionistas 26-27 away jersey features a vibrant pink base that fades into deep navy tones towards the bottom hem. The shirt pays tribute to the local region by subtly embedding the names of all 362 municipalities in the province of Salamanca into the fabric graphic, while sleeve cuffs carry lyrics dedicated to the club's loyal travelling fanbase.
