Konami Digital Entertainment has released the first official screenshots from its football simulation game Pro Evolution Soccer 2012 in order to show fans of the series what they will be getting when the title is launched during the fall of this year.

The screenshots, two of which are attached to this article, have apparently been selected in order to show off the newly implemented movements for players and the animations that the team has developed since PES 2011 has been launched.

Konami says that, “The Tokyo-based team has worked hard to ensure PES 2012 is a more fluid and playable experience, with the jostling system used in last year’s game now enhanced to offer proper bodily contact and physical reactions, while close control and the team AI has been reworked to provide a more realistic recreation of real football.”

The development team has not offered a lot of concrete information on Pro Evolution Soccer 2012 but, as always with the series, the aim is to create a game as close as possible to the real-life experience of being on a football pitch.

One of the big enhancements will be Artificial Intelligence of the game, which will have players on the same team work in a smart way in order to support each other as they attack the enemy goal and as they fall back in defense.

PES 2012 will have to offer something special in order to attract gamers and perform better, both in terms of sales and critical response, than the rival FIFA 12 series from EA Sports, which will also be launched at some point during September.

FIFA 12 has recently offered details on something called the Player Impact Engine, a new system that will allow players to be more physical when going up close and personal with the other team.
