FIFA 15 Vs. PES 2015: 10 Key Aspects Reviewed And Compared
5. Licenses
On the surface, FIFA 15 is the easy winner with the official Premier League but PES 2015 has done amazing work with football's biggest competition; The UEFA Champions League. EA Sports quite rightly show off the Premier League license in nearly every menu but the exclusion of the Champions League and Europa League still frustrates millions of FIFA fans. EA have exclusive rights to the Premier League for another year and similarly, Konami's license with UEFA is up in 2016 so it will be interesting to see if all can be in both games. As it stands, it depends whether you enjoy the aesthetic and realistic look over the fake leagues of PES 2015. The players are licensed so Aguero will be at Manchester City but for some people, just seeing Man Blue in the menu with a fake crest is enough to warrant a purchase of FIFA 15. It's a pity because 15 minutes will see all premier league team names changed to reflect their proper team and the licensed teams look better than FIFA. All in all, the Premier League and Bundesliga as well as the fully licensed Italian and Spanish divisions mean FIFA 15 wins by default. Winner: FIFA 15
