The free-to-play eFootball™ 2022, has been designed to recreate the battle for the ball between players, and the unique team tactics that are often seen in the football world. New controls have been added to the game giving users more options for any situation on the pitch, with the opportunity to experience tactical battles based on real-world football ideologies.

Furthermore, a new element: "Season" has been added. Each Season's theme will reflect hot topics in the real footballing world and will have a wide variety of events to match. The theme of Season 1 will be “New Gameplay Approach, Team Building, & Licenses.” This will offer users to experience the exciting offensive and defensive element often seen in real-world football, perfectly replicated in eFootball™ 2022!

There will also be the addition of the game mode ‘Dream Team’ - previously introduced as ‘Creative Team’. This will be the game mode in which users can enjoy building their very own team, play against other "Dream Teams" from around the world, and experience as many titanic clashes of differing footballing ideologies as there are users.

After an initial week-long "Start-up period”, various in-game events matching with the theme of Season 1 will be held from April 21st.

Finally, there will be additions of new licenses from both Japan and North America, Meiji Yasuda J1 League, Meiji Yasuda J2 League, MLS Players Association and USL Championship.
