GamesRadar+: 1.5 / 5 by Ben Wilson

A disastrous start to the post-PES era. The only consolation? It surely can't get any worse from here.

Life is Xbox: 18 / 100 by Dae Jim

eFootball 22 is one of the saddest downgrades of a franchise I ever experienced. Avoid this football game, yes.. I know it is free-to-play.

Full Review

Screen Rant: 0.5 / 5 by Rob Gordon

Ultimately, eFootball 2022 is a disaster at launch. It's a buggy, unenjoyable mess with limited gameplay options that strip back the core strengths of the PES series, and the fact that it was released in this state at all is shocking. Konami may bring in fixes as it implements further free-to-play updates, but even then, the question over eFootball 2022's worth will still need to be repeatedly asked.
