Konami announced today that Winning Eleven J-League, based on the upcoming season that starts in March, will be released in February, and be distributed as DLC for Winning Eleven 2012.

So far no screens have been shown, but expect pictures and details in the coming weeks. It will be very interesting to see what the price will be.

PES Name Debate Poll

A quick load up of PES2012 confirms that the Data Pack unexpectedly announced late last week is now available for download. Full details on the contents can be found here.

Konami’s official Winning Eleven site has today revealed details on new DLC which has been confirmed for release on 27th December. At the time of writing we are still uncertain as to whether this DLC is scheduled for release in other territories on the same day.

The DLC includes 14 new boots and 3 new balls, as well as an update to the Japanese international sides kit.

Watch it below. From what I can tell it’s using the Wii version gameplay and graphics, with an extra layer of sheen. Maybe this is the PS2 HD version you guys have been asking for after all…

Not too sure if or when we’ll see this outside of Asia so we all can have a dabble, but I presume it’s depending on how well it does over in the East.

More info when we have it.

Dedicated MMO genre site mmosite have posted details on the announcement of a Winning Eleven MMO which will be developed by Korean developer NHN. Due for release in Korea exclusively at initial launch, global availability appears to not be ruled out at a later date.

Could this be the free-to-play title that was muted a while back? More details are sure to follow on this somewhat unique branching out for the franchise.

That might seem nothing special to most of you, but it’s very rare a 3rd party title sells well on a Nintendo console, especially at launch when the likes of Proffesor Layton and Nintendogs (& cats) are launch games.

In the 2 days after launch, WE 3DS sold just short of 25,000, charting no. 6 and 15 in both 3DS and all formats charts respectively.

The Official Winning Eleven 3DS site is now open with some new screens and info. Might be my browser playing up but no Google Translate option appeared to be available in order to read the text and unearth further details but still, there are a few new assets on display to take in.

Lots of Japanese then, as well as a nice looking game in player cam. From the overall look, and especially the way the goalkeeper animates, it’s been put together by the Wii team. Perhaps an easier port being Nintendo consoles?

More when we get it.

Something we’ve been a little quiet on is the announcement of this game, but with news released today that it will be playable at a convention in Japan next month, meant it was about time to bring some focus to it.

Actually named Winning Eleven 3D Soccer, it’s set to be launch game when the new console hits next year. Below are the first screens to be released for the game, as well as a magazine scan from Famitsu. Thanks to both Wii Brazil and Wii Nintendo for the media.
