Pro Evolution Soccer 2016 will be released in a couple of hours on Steam, alongside its PC demo. Now we are certain that a lot of you are still wondering what’s the deal with the PC version. Is it a hybrid like last year or not? Well, YouTube’s ‘Candyland’ released the following video, showing the graphical differences between the PC and the PS4 versions of PES 2016 (and yes, from the looks of it’s a hybrid). Enjoy!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.

Nothing that a little ENB+SweetFX cannot fix, but still until & unless Konami decide to drop the Last-Gen PS3 & Xbox 360 versions next year we will still be getting this insulting hybrid version for PES 2017 again because these Japanese producers cannot accept that PC gaming is capable of producing vastly superior visuals than outdated on arrival Current-Gen consoles.
I cannot wait for the Overwhelmingly Negative reviews of this game on Steam.
PES 2015 got 6/10 reviews, not that overwhelmingly negative. Not everyone care about graphics.
47% on Steam already. people are more aware now since Arkham Knight’s mess and new Refund Policy.
Still far from ‘overwhelmingly negative’ though. My point still stands.
ENB+SweetFX is going to do f*ck all improving the terrible textures and terrible crowds.
But the lighting and colors can be fixed but it should be the developers job not ours.
This right here, better than FIFA and PES. 😀
Well, it appears once again they are not so interested in selling many pc copies…
I’ll never buy into a effortless job like this.
Heard PES 2016 is really good though!

a title to pirate
Not even worthy of that.
It really is not worth wasting bandwidth on this pile of garbage.
somehow PES being hybrid on PC feels like something personal rather than just simple lack of budget or lack of right coding.
either way, it’s 2015. the time of screwing PC gamers seems to be over. good luck selling SH*T port to us as*hats… give us good ports like MGS V and we buy em like cupcakes
The game is using effing DX9 in 2015 on PC. Their target audience is obviously unaware casual soccer fans with potatoe PCs who don’t game much other than the occasional FIFA, Football Manager and PES games.
I remember the days when it was all the other way round: PES had a more or less proper PC version, while FIFA on PC used an old-gen engine (prior to FIFA 11). Since then, it has been gradually changing, and now my money goes to EA.
I guess its selling poorly on PC? or they know that most football fans around the world on PC have low specs? there must be a reason. i doubt Sony or MS are paying them to do this.
My guess is that their data collected shows the average PES gamer to have old hardware so they arent giving you the DX11 version.
My question, does the game play the same? like are the animations all there? if so it might still be a good buy for football fans with old machines.
And that is not the worst thing…online mode is the biggest crap in gaming history.
Was a fan of the series since the 90’s…played almost every single PES on consoles and then started to play on PC since 2013…just to see this crap happening. Just no…
WTF?!
