FULL STORY ======================================================================

Konami has confirmed that eFootball will take advantage of the more powerful hardware of the PS5 and Xbox Series X , but there wont be support for 120Hz capable displays.

In an exclusive interview with TechRadar, eFootballs producer Seitaro Kimura said that players should expect to see major visual enhancements on PS5 and Xbox Series X but confirmed that there is no 120Hz support on console".

While the lack of 120Hz support on PS5 and Xbox Series X isnt a deal breaker, being able to play eFootball at 120fps on consoles would have certainly been appealing. The option to play at higher framerates is becoming more commonplace on console, particular Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S , and if FIFA 22 only output at the usual 60fps, it could have been a selling point
for Konami's eFootball over its rival. How to enable 120Hz on PS5 How to enable 120Hz on Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S PS5 and Xbox Series X games with 120fps support

In terms of what kind of visual enhancements we might see, we expect
eFootball will target a 4K resolution and include better textures and
lighting than what will be available on last-gen consoles. However, well have to wait to see exactly what those enhancements include and whether eFootball will include any platform-specific features like DualSense support on PS5.

eFootball represents a new approach from Konami. Not only has the game
ditched its old title of PES to try and to help turn the game into a viable esport, but its also going free-to-play and will have cross-platform play across consoles, PC and mobile devices. The game will be updated with new teams, content and modes, and will replace the typical paid annual releases the series has previously followed. Not long till kickoff

eFootball has also been built on Unreal Engine 4, which Kimura-san said
helped the team develop for all platforms in one environment and handle cross-platform play relatively smoothly. Players will be able to compete against their friends no matter which platform they choose, which isn't something that's possible on FIFA 22, as it stands.

eFootball is due to release on PS4 , PS5, Xbox One , Xbox Series X/S, PC and mobile in early Autumn (likely September). PS5 vs Xbox Series X : the two consoles compared
