PES 2013 first in a planned series of DLC updates refreshes the squads and enhances online elements

Konami has announced the availability of the first free update for Pro Evolution Soccer (PES) 2013. As with previous iterations of the series, Konami is committed to constantly adding content to PES 2013, and the first free update ramps up the online side of the game.

Available today for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, the update adds a widget system that acts as a shortcut to gathering friends together for online matches. PES 2013 allows up to eight people to play in a match simultaneously, and the new download adds Community modes, wherein friends can be automatically selected from a pre-determined list and allows communities to track and monitor their results. Users can also now concede a match at half-time as well.

Konami will also soon release a 2nd DLC pack that reflects all summer transfers, adds further UEFA elements, team updates and 11 new boot designs.
