Introducing myPES

Konami Digital Entertainment GmbH has announced it has appointed argonauten G2 to oversee an exciting new companion project for its forthcoming PES 2012 title called myPES. Full details of myPES will be revealed exclusively at gamescom in Cologne.

KONAMI will release PES 2012 on October 14th and is committed to providing users with a rich, all-round footballing experience. The European Headquarters of KONAMI and argonauten G2 originally discussed an idea to extend the competitive element that makes PES 2012 so playable, and have been working closely with the PES Productions development team in Japan to bring these ideas to life.

KONAMI will be outlining full details of myPES at this year’s gamescom in Cologne, where the game will be available for the public to play for the first time. “User feedback is vital in the development of the PES series,” commented Jon Murphy, European PES Team Leader. “As such, we are very excited about the possibilities myPES will bring, and look forward to fully explaining it in Cologne.”

“Pro Evolution Soccer is such an iconic brand and it is fantastic to be working so closely with the development team for myPES,” commented Maik Hofmann, Unit Director for argonauten G2 . “What we have planned will open new frontiers to players of PES 2012 and how they play the game, and we are very excited about showing what we have achieved at this year’s gamescom event.”

PES 2012 will be released for PlayStation® 3, Xbox 360, and Windows PC on October 14th, with versions to follow for Wii, PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) and PlayStation®2.
