EFootball will have 'significant visual improvements' on PS5 and Xbox Series X



Konami has confirmed that eFootball will take advantage of the more powerful hardware of PS5 and Xbox Series X, but that there will be no support for 120Hz-capable displays. In an exclusive interview with TechRadar, eFootball producer Seitaro Kimura said that players should "expect to see major visual improvements on PS5 and Xbox Series X" but confirmed that "there is no 120Hz support on the console." While the lack of 120Hz support on PS5 and Xbox Series X isn't a deal breaker, being able to play eFootball at 120fps on consoles would certainly have been attractive. The option to play at higher frame rates is becoming more common on console, especially Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, and if FIFA 22 only launched at 60fps, it could have been a selling point for eFootball. of Konami over its rival. As for the kind of visual improvements we might see, we'd expect eFootball to aim for 4K resolution and include better textures and lighting than will be available on next-gen consoles. However, we will have to wait to see exactly what these improvements include and if eFootball will include platform-specific features such as DualSense support on PS5. EFootball represents a new approach from Konami. The game has not only ditched its old PES title in an attempt to help turn the game into a viable esport, but it will also be free-to-play and offer cross-platform play across consoles, PC, and mobile. The game will be updated with new equipment, content, and modes, and will replace the typical paid annual releases that the series has previously followed.

eFootball was also built on Unreal Engine 4, which Kimura-san says helped the team "grow for all platforms in one environment" and "handle cross-platform play relatively smoothly." Players will be able to compete with their friends no matter which platform they choose, which is not possible in FIFA 22 as-is. eFootball is scheduled to launch on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PC, and mobile in early fall (probably September).
