eFootball PES 2020 will once again be the official home of a major UEFA international competition. FIFA 19 scored the exclusive rights to the UEFA Champions League last year, but Konami has now announced that the next game in the PES series will be the official UEFA EURO 2020 video game, just as it was with EURO 2016.
The exclusive partnership deal means that a free downloadable content pack will be released during the second quarter of 2020, featuring the national team's kits, crests and players before the tournament's June start. The game will also feature all the national teams at launch. PES has also snatched the rights to both Juventus and Atlético River Plate away from FIFA 20 this year; this, coupled with the name change (the 'eFootball' is new) indicates that this will be an important PES release. Konami is also planning an esports tournament, the UEFA EURO 2020 tournament, which will culminate in an event held in London before the final of the actual EURO 2020 tournament.
