Celebrate 30 Years of eFootball With a Feature-Packed Season Update

• New Link-Up Play system introduced
• Newcomers receive Messi for completing the tutorial
• Mourinho Edition/Set drops alongside more Ambassador Editions and Packs

Three decades on, the goals keep coming. Konami marks the 30th anniversary of its iconic football series with a major eFootball season update, live now. Built around the latest summer transfer market, this refresh delivers updated data, smoother gameplay, deeper customisation, and rewards tailored for both long-time fans and new arrivals—perfect for anyone searching for realistic football simulation tips or mobile football tactics.

Limited-time events such as the Campaign Hub, Special Login Bonuses, and Campaign Achievements offer chances to earn eFootball Coins, training items, EXP, and GP. New players also score big from the start: clear the tutorial to claim a free Show Time card starring Lionel Messi, an ideal boost for players exploring beginner eFootball strategies.

The new Link-Up Play system adds tactical depth, allowing a Centre Piece and Key Man to trigger special combination plays when positioned correctly and equipped with compatible play styles. Manchester United’s manager Rúben Amorim debuts as part of the update, along with players designed to fit this system. Off the pitch, a revamped Stadium Customisation feature lets you tailor colours, crowd choreography, and décor to craft a truly personal home ground—great for fans looking for stadium-building inspiration.
