What is eFootball?
eFootball is KONAMI's free football game and the successor to PES.
Gameplay
Passing, dribbling and shooting feel weighty and rewarding. Dream Team lets you build a squad, choose a manager and play AI events or online matches. Recent updates added Match Analysis, which shows patterns from your recent matches, and version 5.3.0 added controller support for some commands on mobile, according to KONAMI.
Graphics and performance
Among the best-looking football games on mobile, with licensed kits and stadiums. Lower settings help on older phones.
Monetisation
Free to play. Players and campaigns can be bought with coins, but events give many free rewards.
What we liked
On the pitch, eFootball is excellent for a free game: passing has weight, dribbling feels responsive and well-built attacks are rewarding. Dream Team gives long-term goals, campaigns add regular free rewards, and features such as Match Analysis help players understand their own habits.
What could be better
The game is online only, and players who prefer a traditional offline career mode will miss it. Large updates during the season also need storage space and a good connection.
Who is it for?
Football fans who enjoy building a team and playing online.
Tips if you start playing
- Pick a manager whose playing style matches your players
- Train players towards the position you actually use
- Use Match Analysis to see which defensive habits cost you goals
Verdict
eFootball is excellent free football, best for online Dream Team players. Our score: 8.1/10.
