This game was released on September 12, 2017 and is no longer available to pre-order. Any incentives that were offered are listed below.

Pro Evolution Soccer 2018 is a soccer simulator developed by PES Productions and published by Konami. It brings various gameplay improvements, such as more precise ball handling and improved physics, as well as graphical upgrades for increased authenticity, despite the game still running on the same Fox Engine. There also are new modes, namely the 2v2 and 3v3 online co-op, with support for local guests. The publisher also promises a PC port that is on par with its console counterpart in terms of graphics and content, which wasn’t quite the case with the two previous games from the franchise.
