A limited number of exclusive cards will be included in physical versions of PES 2018 starting on 14 September. The cards will be available ahead of the official launch of the new Topps Match Attax range, and will only be available for a short period of time.
"We are constantly looking for ways to extend awareness of the PES series to new audiences, and are delighted to be working with a UEFA Champions League partner of the calibre of Topps," commented Jonas Lygaard, Senior Director - Brand & Business Development for Konami Digital Entertainment B.V. "These collectible cards are huge with young football fans and they can be the first to get their hands on them before Topps officially releases their Match Attax range by purchasing PES 2018 at launch".
