How do I download the PES 2019 demo?
Once the PES 2019 demo goes live, simply go to the digital store on your platform of choice (only Steam is supported for PC), search for "PES 2019," select the demo, and start downloading. At the moment it doesn't look like Konami plans to let players pre-load the demo ahead of time, so you'll just have to wait for the whole thing to go live.

What platforms will the PES 2019 demo be available on?
You can download and play the PES 2018 demo on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. And it's free, so if you have more than one of those platforms you might as well download the demo on all of them so you can compare and contrast! Unfortunately, Konami has announced no plans for a Nintendo Switch version of the demo or full game at the moment.
What teams and stadiums will the PES 2019 demo feature?
You'll be able to try out 12 clubs from across Europe and South America in the PES 2019 demo. Here are the contenders:
- FC Barcelona
- Liverpool FC
- FC Schalke 04
- Inter
- AC Milan
- AS Monaco
- CR Flamengo
- São Paulo FC
- SE Palmeiras
- Colo-Colo
- France
- Argentina
And you can play in one of two stadiums:
- Camp Nou
- Veltins-Arena
What modes will be playable in the PES 2019 demo?
You can try out three flavors of football when the PES 2019 demo goes live: offline exhibition matches, offline co-op, and online quick matches. The competitive online matches weren't available in last year's demo, and PES is traditionally at its most thrillingly unpredictable - and deeply tactical - against human opposition. Better start practicing your goal celebrations now.
