PES 2018 Patch 2026
Are you still having fun with Pro Evolution Soccer (PES) 2018? A new patch that takes your game all the way to the 2026 season is here to give it new life. This big patch has a lot of changes, like the most recent summer transfers, more realistic player faces, new club kits for the new season, and graphics that stand out.
One of the most important changes in this patch is that the overall ratings of players have been fixed to be more accurate and reflect how well they are currently playing. This is something that many players have asked for. Every player’s stats have been changed to make them feel more relevant with a new option file for the 2025–2026 season.
