AFC Champions League coming to Pro Evolution Soccer franchise

Konami has announced an agreement with the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) to incorporate the AFC Champions League, the prestigious tournament that decides Asia’s greatest club team, into forthcoming versions of Pro Evolution Soccer.

The deal will see Konami working closely with the AFC to integrate the club competition into forthcoming Pro Evolution Soccer titles. The game will feature a dedicated mode, allowing users to control one of the 32 teams that compete in the AFC Champions League tournament.

The Pro Evolution Soccer series already holds other notable licenses, including Europe’s premier club competition, the UEFA Champions League. However, many popular leagues in Europe do not appear in the series due to competition for licensing from EA's FIFA series.

Pro Evolution Soccer is the annual football game from Konami. This year's version has not yet been announced.
