‘Pro Evolution Soccer’ Finals to be held before UEFA Champions League final in Berlin

Konami has announced that the greatest Pro Evolution Soccer players will gather in front of Berlin’s iconic Brandenburg Gate where the grand virtual PES Finals will be held, incidentally a few hours before the actual UEFA Champions League final between Juventus and Barcelona.

Starting with group stages (just like the Champions League proper) the tournament will then move onto knock-out rounds and all will be played on the PlayStation 4 version. A constant stream of results will be reported live via the official PES League Twitter account while select matches, including the Grand Final, will be streamed live via the PES League Twitch Channel.
