PES 2018: Konami just revealed how good Usain Bolt is going to be… and it’s ridiculous

We knew he was going to be fast... but seriously?

PES 2018 fans don’t have to wait any longer to see how good Usain Bolt is in the game.

We’ve teamed up with Konami to bring you the Jamaican sprinter’s rating before anyone else – and he certainly doesn’t disappoint.

Usain Bolt’s speed and power stats are incredible – but his overall is just 75

The 31-year-old has a sprint speed rating of 99 – as well as 99 rated explosive power – making him the fastest player on the game.

To put this into perspective Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, widely regarded as one of the world’s quickest players, is rated at 97.

Bolt’s overall rating of 75, though, is a cause for concern – with his dribbling and finishing likely to be the weakest attributes.

That being said, earlier in the year, PES fans caught their first glimpses of Bolt in action – and he looked very useful indeed.

The clip showed Bolt receive the ball on the edge of the penalty area before easily brushing off an opponent. He then races through and smashes the ball into the top right corner.

Sadly, for those hoping to see Bolt play in real life, we don’t think he’ll be as good.

PES 2018 is set to be the best in years and, bar a few dodgy goalkeepers, the inclusion of the Olympic champion is the icing on a very impressive cake.

It’s set to be released on September 14, two weeks before FIFA 18 comes out on September 29.
