A PES 2019 option file - or PES 2019 patch - is for some the thing that helps them fully Pro Evolution Soccer by ushering official licences, even if all of the best players in PES 2019 are officially included.
Whilst playing as Man Red instead of Manchester United or MD White instead of Real Madrid doesn't literally impact the action itself, there is an argument to made that the lack of real names inhibits the overall spectacle. How to download and install PES 2019 on PC, Laptop
Fortunately - for PlayStation 4 and PC players, at least - there's a remarkably easy way of switching those default names to the real one.
Downloading fan-made patches to a USB stick and then onto your PS4 (or copying them across to game files directly on your PC) can replace every single unofficial team, stadium, kit, competition and/or badge in the game, meaning you're able to make what is a decent footballing experience on the pitch also one of the most visually realistic.
PS4 players can now add massively detailed option files to PES 2019, with a new feature which makes it possible not only to import the files, but to do so across multiple separate profiles with a single folder on a USB drive.
To do so on PS4 specifically, simply follow the instructions below (a quick word of warning: obviously, whatever you download from internet forums is done so at your own risk, so bear that in mind before you do too much digging around!):
With those steps followed, you now have a complete set of teams with official names, logos, tournaments, kits and badges, just as if you were playing a fully licensed version of the game.
Things are a little more nebulous for PC players of PES 2019, with the installation process of the fan-made patch requiring a different, albeit still simple, method to the USB trick on PS4. PC patches can also be a littler harder to come by soon after release, but they are out there.
One option is this patch from pes-patch.com, although it's still untested on PC at the time of writing - keep an eye on pes-patch and PES World for more soon if it doesn't work just yet.
Another site, PTE patch, should have some soon too. To install them, follow the simple steps below:
That should do it for PC players, but do note that other, more comprehensive patches are likely to surface for PC as time goes by. Make sure to keep an eye out on community sites like PesWorld and Pes-Patch over the coming few weeks.
Sadly for Xbox One owners there is no ability to transfer and install an option file at present. Rather than being able to simply import externally created files from a USB drive, Xbox One players will instead need to manually edit the teams, kits, and competitions in-game.
Fortunately, PES 2019 does include a comprehensive editor built into the game, as it did last year. Head to the Edit option again, and there you'll find the options to manually change things like team names - we've compiled a list of real team names to save you some time - along with competition names, kit colours (although not sponsors and logos), and more.
