Pro Evolution Soccer (Ohga Shrugs)

Pro Evolution Soccer, also known as World Soccer: Winning Eleven, is a series of soccer games by Konami. With over xx million copies sold, it is one of the best selling sports game series of all time.

Due to Electronic Art's various exclusive rights, some information in the series is purposely inaccurate.

History
Pro Evolution Soccer was first released in October 2001 for the Sega Dreamcast. Since then, this series has had yearly iterations. Although the series was originally a Dreamcast exclusive, more recent iterations have released on both the Revolution and Pluto.

When the seventh generation consoles got their first iterations of the series, the number scheming was changed to match the following year rather than the iteration of the series. Every game in series history has released in September or October, with the exception of launch titles.

With each iteration of the series, rosters are updated, mechanics are added and tweaked, and the game's presentation is improved.
