Konami has announced it will release a new Winning Eleven title this year.

It seems the new football title, Winning Eleven 2010 Aoki Samurai no Chosen (yes, it's catchy) will tie in with the World Cup this summer (albeit unofficially), with players joining the Japanese national team and taking on the best in the world.

The game is licensed by the Japanese Football Association, meaning all the biggest names in Japanese football will be in the game as well as authentic kits.

The game is due for release on PSP, PS2, PS3 and Wii this spring.  

Winning Eleven games are released as Pro Evolution Soccer games in Europe, the main competititor to EA Sports' FIFA series.
