eFootball’s disastrous launch has gone from bad to worse – it’s currently the most-hated game on Steam, according to user reviews.
Yesterday Eurogamer published impressions of the free-to-download football game, which launched on PC and console in extremely limited form.

As I wrote yesterday, there’s a lot that’s wrong with eFootball, Konami’s follow-up to the beloved Pro Evolution Soccer series. But it’s the player faces that have turned eFootball’s launch into a viral joke.
Players are flooding Steam with negative user reviews, decrying the state of the game. That’s bad enough for Konami, but what’s worse is eFootball is now the worst Steam game of all time, according to Steam reviews.
Steam250, which ranks Steam games, lists eFootball ahead of 2011’s Flatout 3, 2014’s Uriel’s Chasm and 2010’s Command & Conquer 4 in the bottom 100. Of eFootball’s 10,647 Steam reviews, just just nine percent are positive.
eFootball is bad, but clearly it’s not the game on Steam (have you seen some of the crap on there?). What it is, is one of the most disappointing releases in recent memory. PES took 2020 off, and the hope was the series would return with a bang. Instead, it’s self-destructed.
