Improved Graphics

Although the game uses the same engine as in Pro Evolution Soccer 4, there are various enhancements. Players will now be seen to have their shirts untucked, and can also have tape on their fingers (generally used to cover rings). Wristbands are also now included in multiple colours and players can wear cycling shorts underneath the club shorts. Players will now also move better around the pitch thanks to even more animations.

A new weather condition has been added, snow. Now you can play in even the coldest conditions, and even see breath coming from players mouths. Also to do with the pitch, you can now play with new balls, including an orange ball for the snow conditions. More ad boards can be seen around the sides of the pitch. Previously only 3 different styles were repeated whereas now there are many more styles.

And There's More...

- Improved Master League with more control of player growth.
