eFootball 2026 Kicks Off 9th Anniversary with Epic Surprises

As the countdown begins, the community is buzzing with excitement over the possibility of free Epics, Show Time cards, and exclusive campaigns. Officially confirmed, the Show Time Player Voting event has already started, allowing fans to choose their favorite players from four national teams: Germany, England, the Netherlands, and Turkey. Expect iconic names like Joshua Kimmich, Marc Guéhi, and Jurriën Timber to be in the mix, with the top vote-getters set to make a grand entrance around mid-May to celebrate this milestone.

What’s more, community chatter suggests the anniversary campaign might mirror last year’s spectacular 8th Anniversary bash, which was a major hit. Speculative images circulating online showcase potential Epic Worldwide-style rewards featuring legends like Lamine Yamal, Fabio Cannavaro, and Luis Figo among others. While these tantalizing concepts have not yet been officially confirmed, they certainly have players dreaming big.

The heightened anticipation stems from the massive success of last year’s celebrations, which included the Epic: Worldwide Special Selection Contract. Players were able to pick their favorite footballers, and the multiple Chance Deals were a cherry on top. However, this time around, players are understandably cautious. After the letdown of the 30th Anniversary campaign and the more recent 1 Billion Downloads event, there’s no guarantee that KONAMI will dish out the same level of rewards.
