FIFA 20 vs. PES 2020 – which game has better graphics? With this graphics comparison, you can form your own impression and answer this question for yourself.
Where does the graphics comparison come from? While the demo of PES 2020 has been available to all players for several weeks, where you can thoroughly evaluate the graphics, Gameplay material for FIFA 20 has been widely available online since gamescom 2019 in mid-August. As for the FIFA 20 demo, you still have to wait a little.
Some content creators have compared images from PES 2020 and FIFA 20 to showcase graphic comparisons in videos. A highly regarded graphic comparison comes from TFVGaming | Rohan Trehan, which we embed here:

Player faces in comparison: Every year, the comparison of player faces between the annual football simulations is particularly exciting. FIFA 20 is always on the left in the following images, PES 2020 is on the right.
- Fred (Manchester United):
- Smalling (Manchester United):
- Suarez (FC Barcelona):
In this video by AF Gameplays, there are many more face comparisons to see – from players of Juventus, Manchester City, Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Barcelona:
And the YouTuber MGH compares the Arsenal players in FIFA 20 and PES 2020:
This is what fans say about the comparisons: In the comments, most fans write that PES 2020 is the clear winner in the face comparisons. While Smalling does look like he has a massive hangover in PES, one user laughs, overall the PES faces look more realistic in comparison.
One user summarizes:
- PES has prettier stadiums and the faces look better due to more detail like sweat, muscles, and veins.
- But FIFA 20 has much better facial expressions, mouth movements, much better jerseys, and fans, and more realistic hair movement.
- He argues that both games offer quite a bit graphically and receives nearly 200 upvotes for that.
Otherwise, as expected, there are many comments praising either FIFA or PES to the heavens or disparaging the other game. Moreover, one must consider that in the videos mainly players are compared whose clubs Konami has a partnership with and where they could conduct new, high-quality scans. EA Sports, on the other hand, has face scans of significantly more players from various leagues.
And a fan writes: “Who cares about graphics, just give me high-quality gameplay.” Many agree with him.
What do you think about the graphics comparisons? Is there a clear winner for you?
