The video is set to a backdrop of Queen’s – We Will Rock You, a song which is synonymous with long-term PES fans, harking back to the opening intro video from Pro Evolution Soccer 2.

Neymar Jr. is prominently featured in the new trailer, as he has been revealed as the cover star of this year’s game. In Konami’s press release, he commented on his delight to be the star of this year’s title.

“The series has long been praised for its sheer level of control and utter realism and I am delighted to be working with such a talented team as Konami.”
