Konami has just announced the arrival of a new partner club for PES 2019, that of AS Monaco. The Monegasques will be entitled to special treatment and a dedicated jacket will highlight the captain of the team, Falcao.
It goes away and it comes back
A few weeks ago, we learned that PES 2019 had lost its agreement with Borussia Dortmund but had recovered a few days later a partnership with FC Shalke 04. It is now the AS Monaco who comes to sign and becomes official partner of the Konami's next football game. We can expect a lot of work done on modeling players and a faithful reproduction of the Stade Louis II.
We also learn that a special cover for France will be proposed, displaying Phillipe Countinho and Radamel Falcao side by side. "This is a far-reaching agreement with AS Monaco, which will allow this famous club to work closely with KONAMI in a number of areas," said Jonas Lygaard, Senior Director Brand & Business Development at Konami. "In addition to working with the club to ensure that it is perfectly recreated in the game, we are delighted that a player of the caliber of Radamel Falcao has agreed to become our local ambassador. We hope that this partnership will be long and productive and that it will show the extent of KONAMI's ambition for the PES series. "
Recall that the release date of PES 2019 is set for August 20, 2018 on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
