Konami Digital Entertainment B.V. today announced that eFootball™ 2022; is available on Steam® for PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Windows 10, and desktops. This launch is a kind of early access version that will give players an idea before the game’s first major and free update in the fall.
To celebrate the launch of eFootball™ 2022; the launch will include the Online Match campaign and the “Worldwide Clubs” eFootball™ Kick-Off campaign. The Online Match campaign will give players the opportunity to win Chance Deal contracts based on the number of online matches they play. Chance Deal allows players to get Legendary player cards that they can use to power up their team in the upcoming Creative Teams mode in the Fall update.
The Online Match campaign will continue from now until 8 November 2021 at 01:59 UTC ;04:59 GMT. The special prizes that can be won are as follows:
Chance Deal #1 –10 wins after 10 games
Chance Deal #2 –won after 15 or more games
Chance Deal #3 –won after 20 or more games
The Worldwide Clubs special allows players to choose their favorite clubs to face their competitors around the world. Starting today, players will be able to explore the World of eFootball™, where they can enjoy both online and offline matches with real-life teams. Online Event mode allows users to play against each other through ‘challenge events’. Players will be able to select one of over 200 licensed teams each week and complete a variety of missions to win GPs they can use in the next major update. Once users have selected their preferred team, they can only use it during the current event – this selection resets when the event expires.
Two challenge players are waiting per event; Completing the first mission unlocks the second. Players will not experience any restrictions on the number of matches they can play even after completing missions. Although the reward they can earn after completing the task for the first time decreases™ users can continue to collect GPs because eFootball is “Play to Win”.
eFootball™ 2022 comes with matchmaking between consoles (PlayStation®5 and PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One) so gamers can fully experience Event mode regardless of console generations. The Worldwide Clubs event runs from now until November 8.
Players can also play offline against artificial intelligence or a companion with nine original Partner Clubs to choose from. There are currently six stadiums in the game: Camp Nou, Old Trafford, Allianz Stadium, Emirates Stadium, Allianz Arena and eFootball Stadium.
