Pro Evolution Soccer 2015 Adds Roster Updates, More Player Likenesses for Free

Gamers also get stadiums, footwear and a new ball

  Pro Evolution Soccer 2015 is getting transfer updates

Video game developer and publisher Konami is announcing that a new free Data Pack 4 is at the moment in development for Pro Evolution Soccer 2015 and is set to arrive on March 12, giving gamers access to a range of new content, including updates for team rosters, more player likenesses to use, and extra stadiums and uniforms which will improve the overall experience.

The company says that "The download keeps the game updated with real-time league changes, implementing player transfers made within the January window. Player ratings have also been updated."

So far, Konami has not offered a clear list of all the players who have had their stats changed, but presumably it will be introduced on March 12.

60 new faces are also added for some of the players who have performed well in the past few months, and gamers will be able to see improved representations for Gabriel Barbosa Almeida, Paco Alcacer, Harry Kane, Paulo Dybala, Javier Pastore and Nathaniel Clyne.

The developers are saying that fans will be able to choose more players to get improved facial simulations in the future.

Three additional stadiums are coming to Pro Evolution Soccer 2015, and one of them is the famous Estadio Alberto J. Armando, aka La Bombonera.

The football sim also includes 11 new shoe styles, including the Adidas Predator Instinct, Adizero f50, the Nike Tiempo, and Puma evoSPEED 1.3.

Finally, the free update also introduces the official ball of the UEFA Champions League Final.

Pro Evolution Soccer 2015 needs to keep up with FIFA 15

Konami has moved relatively slowly when it comes to introducing the major transfers that have taken place during the January window, as EA Sports added them all to the rival FIFA 15 title in early February.

But Konami is delivering some interesting additions to Pro Evolution Soccer 2015, which fans will certainly appreciate.

The most recent installment in the series has introduced some interesting simulation mechanics and the action on the pitch is in many ways superior to that offered by FIFA.

Unfortunately, the studio still has no answer to the popularity of the Ultimate Team mode that EA Sports has created and they need to develop an alternative for the title they are planning to launch in the fall of this year.
