World cup fever rises with Konami’s PES Manager soon to be released

Football fever is catching on fast in the gaming world, with Konami announcing via press release a new mobile gaming app from its Pro Evolution Soccer series, PES Manager.

PES Manager is a full football game app for iOS and Android with 3D matches and over 1,500 player badges. It is also the international edition of Japan’s highest-selling football game app, World Soccer Collection S, and will soon see a global release.

Players in PES Manager are picked up via player badges, which can then be combined into a team managed by the user. Konami is presently holding a pre-launch campaign that offers an additional player badge if users participate in a shootout challenge. Similar to the Chain of Souls promo, users will be able to unlock more attempts at a badge if they share their attempts via social media channels.

Each shootout challenge can be typically attempted up to three times in 24 hours. Social media sharing will up your attempts to twelve times in 24 hours.

Take part in the challenge here! We’ll update you on the launch date for the game as soon as we get it.
