German Debut for Pro Evo 360
Time to check out your favourite travel site for a ticket.
It seems perverse to talk about the next football season with the World Cup still raging in Germany but there's no changing that the big publishers are readying their latest franchise updates. Konami has revealed that if you want to get the jump on your friends and see the new Pro Evolution Soccer game for Xbox 360 first, you're going to have to book yourself a ticket to Germany.
The firm has announced it will debut the Xbox 360 version of Pro Evolution Soccer 6 at Games Convention 2006, which is on from 23-27 August in Leipzig, Germany.
And just because it's a European show, that doesn't mean that Konami isn't putting its heft behind its showing there. Series producer Shingo "Seabass" Takatsuka will be there, as will new Pro Evo cover boy, Brazilian striker Adriano.
This will be the first time the Pro Evolution Soccer series appears on the Xbox 360. The new game is also coming to PC, PlayStation 2, PSP and DS. All versions are scheduled for release this autumn.
