EURO 2020 was delayed a year due to the pandemic and is set to take place this summer, and PES 2021 is the official video game partner of the tournament.
This means that EURO 2020 will be fully licensed on PES 2021, and Konami has announced two upcoming data packs to give you the best experience possible.
Take a look at what to expect below.
