Konami has gone back to the drawing board with PES 2020, bringing in a host of gameplay changes and a revamped Master League.

They've even gone so far as to get Barca legend Andrés Iniesta involved, who has helped shape the new dynamic dribbling skills, first touch techniques and finely-tuned ball physics.

As for Master League, there's an all-new interactive dialogue system, not to mention a more realistic transfer market and overhauled menu design.

Last year, you had the choice of two stadiums in PES demo:

  • Veltins-Arena

We are almost certain the stadiums will remain the same in the PES 2020 demo – especially the Nou Camp.
