Winning Eleven 9
Playstation 2 - NTSC-J Regions Only
Release: August 4th 2005
Price: $62.90
Konami will be releasing what could quite possibly the final installment of Winning Eleven on the current consoles in August of 2005. Details of Winning Eleven 9 are few and far between at this time. However, some features which you can expect to see are:
Improved Graphics
Once again player models and animations will be refined to look smoother than ever. Do not expect a huge over-haul in the graphics until the next-generation consoles, however.
New stadiums
Although not yet confirmed which new stadiums will be making an appearance in Winning Eleven 9, PESInsight expects at least 4 new stadiums to be in the game. Hopefully one of which will be Real Madrid's Bernabeu.
Online Play
Again, not confirmed, but Konami are hopeful that Winning Eleven 9 will feature online play on the Playstation 2, as well as XBox and PC. The latest release in Japan features Online Play on PS2, and, assuming this goes well, the game should also be online in Europe come the release in October.
Bigger Editing Mode
In Winning Eleven 9 you will now be able to create even more accurate kits than ever before. In PES4 we saw the introduction of a sponsor editor, but sadly many kit styles (especially striped shirts) were missing from the game. This will not be the case in Winning Eleven 9.
