The bad vibes surrounding eFootball 2022 are as strong as ever, as the v1.0.0 update isn’t coming out until spring now.
eFootball 2022 came out a few weeks ago in such a disastrous state that it’s already Steam’s worst user-reviewed game. Like, in history! After that, developer and publisher Konami said it was sorry for how eFootball 2022 turned out and was keen on fixing it with patch v1.0.0 later this month. Well, now that update isn’t coming out until spring.
“We would like to inform you that the v1.0.0 update for eFootball 2022, scheduled to be released on Nov. 11, 2021, has been postponed until Spring 2022,” Konami said on eFootball 2022’s website. “Also, we would like to announce the cancellation and automatic refunds of eFootball 2022 Premium Player Pack, which includes items that can only be used in-game after the v1.0.0 update.”

The v1.0.0 patch would bring loads of much-needed bug fixes and a mode where players can create an original team — which is what eFootball 2022 desperately needs right now. However, Konami insists that the development team needs more time to improve the now-infamous soccer game.
Who knows if eFootball 2022 will ever get to a decent state at this rate. It sure doesn’t stack up well against FIFA 22, that’s for sure. Or the brilliant Football Manager 2022, for that matter.
