Wenger named game ambassador

Konami has announced that Arsenal’s long-standing manager, Arsène Wenger, has been named the new ambassador for the iOS and Android mobile soccer management game.

Wenger is the longest-serving U.K. soccer manager where he has overseen double-winning seasons and other successes throughout his 19-year tenure. As the new face of Pes Club Manager, he truly embodies the game’s engrossing simulation of being a top-level soccer manager. Wenger will grace all promotional materials for the game.

Wenger’s appointment comes as Pes Club Manager adds a number of key new elements to delight its fast-growing user base. Central to the new season is an update to the in-game rosters, wherein all transfers are up to date and the stats for its 5,000 licensed players have been altered according to current form. KONAMI has introduced a ‘Guild’ system, wherein players can form their own Football Associations with friends. Members can then work with other users to create a network and work together. Pes Club Manager will also feature a daily login event with prizes for the Wenger update.

The basic ethos of Pes Club Manager remains the same, with players overseeing every aspect of a busy season. Training, injury crises, cup runs and player scouting all fall under the user’s remit. As squads develop,Pes Club Manager‘s unique “Player Management” system is key to growing a talented pool of players. New players can be acquired through a transfer market where the highest bidder will get the player in a real-time auction or via a scouting system where new talent can be spotted. By accessing the Training Facilities, players can then be developed individually by focusing on different skills to improve personal and team skills throughout the season, further enhancing the strength of the team.

Matches are then shown using the same 3D systems seen in KONAMI’s PES series, with the action truly reflecting the tactical systems implemented by the user and the licensed players also instantly recognizable in how they move and play. A simple menu interface also allows users to make changes to tactics mid-match, with the on-field action instantly adapting to reflect a player’s tactics. All the licensed players in the game reflect their real-life counterparts and outline their playing style and key abilities.

Pes Club Manager is available in 18 localized versions, including U.K. English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Portuguese, U.S. English, Russian, Turkish, Traditional and Simplified Chinese, Swedish, Greek, Brazilian Portuguese, and Korean, and is absolutely free.
