Released in September 2021, eFootball was littered with bugs and received widespread criticism. eFootball was the worst-reviewed game on Metacritic in 2021 with a score of 25 out of 100, and the 1.0 update only elevated its score to 34. Konami tweeted an apology for the problems on October 1 2021 stating, \u201cWe are very sorry for the problems, and want to assure everyone we will take all concerns seriously and strive to improve the current situation. Six months later Konami released a massive update that added addressed many of the notable bugs and added the mode \u201cDream Team,\u201d but a fan-favorite mode Master League was surprisingly not included as part of the update. eFootball Master League is coming in 2023 Master League was a hit for Konami\u2019s previous series Pro Evolution Soccer, which allowed players to take control of their favorite team in a career mode.

Update 1.0 added the mode \u201cDream Team\u201d which is comparable to Konami\u2019s MyLeague or FIFA\u2019s Ultimate Team game mode. Ultimate Team has been a cash cow for EA so it is unsurprising that Konami wanted to release a competing game mode. eFootball currently only has nine licensed teams that can be used for offline and CPU-friendly matches. developing a Master League mode with only nine licensed teams would have been a tough ask for the developers, but an update is coming at the end of 2022 that adds more teams.
