Pro Evolution Soccer 2016
A solid mid-cycle football sim that plays it safe but nails the fundamentals for sim-minded players tired of FIFA's bloat.
GamerScout Verdict
Solid football simulation for players who want responsive pitch action without the monetization theater.
Compare Prices(2 stores)
Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About Pro Evolution Soccer 2016
I approached PES 2016 expecting the usual year-on-year tweaks, and that's mostly what you get. The ball physics feel more responsive than FIFA's equivalent, and match pacing rewards patience over sprint-spamming. Career mode is barebones compared to competitors, but the core 11v11 is tactically sound. Squad building lacks the gatekeeping of modern loot-box systems, which honestly feels refreshing if you just want to pick your team and play. It's not revolutionary, and by 2025 standards the visuals are dated. But if you're looking for a straightforward football simulation without card grinding, this delivers exactly that. Not a must-own, but worth checking if it's cheap and you've burned out on the annual FIFA cycle.
