KONAMI unveils details of additions to acclaimed Wii kick-around

Sydney, 09 September, 2010: Konami Digital Entertainment GmbH will release the Wii version of its highly anticipated PES 2011 in October and has outlined the key additions to the new game.

Once again overseen by Producer Akiyoshi ‘Greyhound’ Chosogabe and his dedicated team, PES 2011 follows the lead set by its Next Gen cousins and concentrates on giving the player more control over the action than ever before. At the heart of the game lies true multi-directional dribbling, which allows users to run and turn in all 360-degrees and gives the player greater responsiveness when controlling the ball.

PES 2011 for Wii also retains the dual control methods pioneered by last year’s game. Players can either opt to play the game using a Wii Remote and Nunchuck, with the former used to pick out passes or send players on runs, while the Nunchuck offers total control over the player with the ball. Alternatively, players can use the Wii’s Classic Controller to play in a more conventional style, with the left-hand stick offering full 360-degree movement and the right stick allowing users to change cursors more efficiently. Players can also play against　rivals using different control methods now, regardless of whether they are online or offline. WFC Matches offer a default setting to play against players using the same control method; but there is an option to play against those using a different control method.
