New features

International Challenge Mode

This is the first time the International Challenge Mode has been included on the PES Series. Usually this is seen on the Japanese version - Winning Eleven - where you play as Japan and take them through the qualifiers to the International Cup and then attempt to win it. On PES, however, you have the ability to choose any playable nation on the game. The user can only play the qualifiers from Europe, South America and North/Central America. Although the tournament is not licensed, the qualifiers have a lot of similarities: Winning Eleven is a football (soccer) video game series made by Konami Tokyo. ...

  • A cross-playoff is used between a South American team and an Oceanian team, and a North American team plays an Asian team.
  • There is the same number of qualifiers on the game from each region as there is in the real World Cup. e.g, 14 qualify from Europe.
  • The qualifiers from South America are the same - 10 teams play each other twice with the top 4 qualifying and 5th place entering the cross-playoff.
  • The qualifiers from North America are the same - 6 teams play each other twice with the top 3 qualifying and 4th place entering the cross-playoff.

Team selection can be changed before each game and the player can choose from any player with the eligible nationality.


It should be noted that there are many more unlicensed national teams available in International Challenge Mode featuring full squads. Still those teams can not be selected to be used in International Challenge or any other game mode. These teams are Bosnia and Herzegovina, Estonia, Israel, Panama, Honduras, Guatemala, Jamaica, Bolivia, Venezuela, China, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, UAE (United Arab Emirates) , North Korea, Uzbekistan and Bahrain. The International Challenge mode is only available in the PlayStation 2 and PC versions of Pro Evolution Soccer 6. The Xbox 360 and PSP versions do not include this mode.


Random Selection Match

Also new to PES6 is the Random Selection Match. In this mode the user has the ability to pick either 4 clubs/nations or 1 region/league to play as. Once selected the computer will pick a random selection of players from the selected teams or region for your playable team. The line up is automatically selected, but the player can choose for the computer to pick random players again.


PES shop

  • Players are available as always, but there have been many more added (all unlicensed, but based on real players). It's not only retired legends that can be bought either - Freddy Adu and Kerlon Moura Souza, who are still active, are both available.
  • Costumes can be bought. The Ostrich and Raptor costumes have the players riding them. The Penguin costume has the player in a penguin suit. When riding the raptors, they shoot, header, control, pass and do all the hard work, but their shooting ability is much less than a normal player.
  • Gameplay frames, new hairstyles, new goal celebrations and new stadiums are other new features available in the PES Shop.

Fredua Koranteng Freddy Adu (born 2 June 1989 in Tema, Ghana) is a Ghanaian-American footballer playing as a striker and an attacking midfielder. ... Kerlon Moura Souza (born January 27, 1988 in Ipatinga, Brazil) is a Brazilian football player, who currently plays for Cruzeiro Esporte Clube. ...

The Reebok Cup

The game is sponsored by Reebok, and the Reebok Cup is an uneditable knockout tournament with 16 teams. The user can choose the teams involved (all teams are eligible) and one team can enter more than once. Reebok International Limited is an English producer of athletic footwear, apparel, and accessories and is currently a subsidiary of Adidas AG. The name is the Afrikaans/Dutch spelling of rhebok, a type of African antelope or gazelle. ...


All the matches are played at a random ground with all the Advertising Boards showing the Reebok logo. Only Reebok balls are available to play with.


This is the key to unlocking the classic teams on the Xbox 360 version of PES6. The teams available are shown above.


Network

Groups have been introduced on the PES Network. A player can join/create a group that can gain points by playing together. Groups can play each other in rival matches. If a player creates a group, they manage who's in and who's out, the team name, who else can allow others to join and matches. A player can join a group by applying to join or accepting an invitation from another player. If the leader accepts, they are in the group. Only ten are allowed in one group at first, but there can potentially be 30 in a group at one time. Groups can reach levels. The highest level to progress to is Level 14. When you achieve higher levels you will unlock Costumes(Penguin, Dinosaur and Ostrich) and Classic National teams. Also, you can achieve extra member spaces in your group when you go up in level.
