How do you kill a giant? Konami's Pro Evolution Soccer studio is hoping that it has the answer as creative producer Kei Masuda aims his sights straight for EA Sports' FIFA 14.

"Our ultimate goal is to let you win with the team you love. If we can make a giant-killing possible, it’s a huge difference to FIFA," Masuda said in a recent interview. It's been a long time coming, the producer admitted, highlighting areas in which the series had fallen down in recent years.

"Our biggest struggles were with online play. As we moved to PS3, EA changed its engine, but ours was based on the PS2 game. We only brushed up on animation and some of the AI features." This year's PES will be powered by Kojima Productions' FOX Engine, which will hopefully allow for much greater realism in terms of animations and physics.
