Critic Reviews
IGN
By Simon CardyYes, at least eFootball 2022 does now have a fully-fledged mode to take it past the point of being a demo, but it's still lacking so much more than you'd expect from a 1.0 version of a game.
Eurogamer
By Phil IwaniukIt certainly isn’t a matter of a lack of talent at PES Productions. I don’t believe for a second the developers don’t know how to make a better game than this - we need only look at the last few PES games for evidence to the contrary. These are vastly talented, experienced, passionate people, working as best they can on a deeply flawed concept with a spectacularly poorly communicated plan. They don’t deserve chastisement on social media, though they’ll inevitably get it. But equally, eFootball 2022 still doesn’t deserve your time yet.
GameBlast
By Matheus Senna de OliveiraUnfortunately, eFootball 2022 fell short of all expectations, good or bad. The soccer game drastically changed its proposal by joining a free format, but it seems to have not planned well how to take advantage of it. With a build worthy (or not) of a demo, the game has problems in visuals, gameplay, content and mechanics in general.
GamesCreed
By Junior OnunkwoUltimately, this installment looks rushed. This game possesses a shockingly high number of errors to be considered unplayable.
GameGrin
By Adam KerrGiven Konami's commitment to gambling games over the last few years, you'd think they'd be averse to making poor gambling decisions.
