Good news. Also, is this basically confirmation that the FIFA 16 rumors were true? They have all but two clubs licensed and back in the game.

Absolutely nothing is confirmed for FIFA. It really looks certain that they will fail to re-add the Brazil league or have all the teams from Argentina. Doesn't look like they will add a single new team outside of promoted teams. Not impressed at all by EA this year.

It's a small victory for PES, but at least it's something. Would be nice if they could add some Brazilian specific stadiums/presentation to go with this.

Yeah a few more stadiums would be good, they do have the Corinthians Stadium as per the demo... but other than that, its guesswork for South America.

The Libertadores gets the full pomp on presentation and the crowds are more 'South American' for their games, but other than that idk what Konami will do (or not as the case will probably be).

Some of you seem to think this is announcing an exclusive agreement with the Brazilian League. The exclusive agreement is ONLY with Corinthians. The game features (not exclusively) 20 other Brazilian teams.

There are already 4 Brazilian Stadiums already confirmed for the game: Mineirão (Cruzeiro and Atlético MG), Arena Corinthians (Corinthians), Morumbi (São Paulo) and Vila Belmiro (Santos). It was already confirmed also that all the stadiums of 2015 will be in the game this year, so we can expect Bombonera (Boca Juniors) and Monumental (River Plate) to be available too.

If we´re still now alowed to use Europe licensed stadiums for South America teams we will have these 6 plus the 6 unlicensed ones: Royal London Stadium, Estadio de Escorpiao, Estadio del Nuevo Triunfo, Konami Stadium, Orione Stadium and Burg Stadium.
