Get Messi for free

- New Link-Up Play system introduced
- Newcomers receive Messi for completing the tutorial

Even three decades later, it’s still raining goals. Konami is celebrating the 30th anniversary of its flagship football series with a major eFootball season update, live now. Reflecting the latest summer transfer market, the update brings new data, enhanced gameplay, fresh customisation options, and rewards for both veterans and newcomers.
You can grab eFootball Coins, training items, EXP, and GP through limited-time campaigns including the Campaign Hub, Special Login Bonuses, and Campaign Achievements. And if you're just kicking off your career, a high value gift awaits. Clear the tutorial and get your hands on a free Show Time card featuring none other than Lionel Messi himself.
The season also introduces Link-Up Play, a tactical system that lets two specific players, the Centre Piece and Key Man trigger special combination plays when in position and equipped with the right play styles. Alongside that, Manchester United’s new manager Rúben Amorim and players that fit the criteria are now available.
And if you're someone who’s wanting to build style off the pitch, the new Stadium Customisation system allows you to mix and match stadium colours, fan choreography, and décor items for a personalised home ground.

The update also drops a special José Mourinho Edition/Set. The legendary manager comes with the exclusive Diagonal Long Pass A Link-Up skill, with Epic versions of Wesley Sneijder and Samuel Eto’o able to activate it.

Furthermore, Ambassador Editions and Packs featuring Lionel Messi and rising star Lamine Yamal are now live. These bundles include powerful player cards, training items, special stadium customisation gear, and special card designs picked by the ambassadors themselves.
Finally, on the pitch, gameplay gets a serious tune-up. Expect more realistic player speed and movement, sharper defensive controls, plus mobile-exclusive improvements like refined set-piece controls and a kick cancellation mechanic for finer shot control.
