PES 2013 Language Files: How to Update Pro Evolution Soccer 2013 in 2021 and Beyond

Published: Retro Gaming & PES Modding Hub

It has been nearly a decade since Konami released Pro Evolution Soccer 2013, a title widely regarded by the PES community as the last true gem of the “golden era.” While modern football games focus on ultimate teams and microtransactions, thousands of fans still boot up PES 2013 in 2021, 2022, and 2023 for its unmatched gameplay, Master League depth, and extensive modding capabilities.

One of the most common — yet frustrating — issues players face today is language files. You install the game from an old CD or a digital backup, only to find it’s in Russian, Spanish, or missing your native commentary. Or worse, you download a massive patch (like Smoke Patch or PTE) and suddenly your menus are a mix of English, Turkish, and gibberish.

This article serves as the ultimate guide to understanding, locating, and installing PES 2013 language files specifically for players updating their game in 2021 and later. pes 2013 language files pro evolution soccer 2013 at 2021

Legal and safety notes

Use community mods at your own risk. Back up files to prevent corruption.
Avoid downloading from untrusted sources; scan archives for malware.
Mods typically alter only local game files and do not affect multiplayer servers—check community guidance if playing online.

Step 1: Locate Clean Language Files

You need original or trusted PES 2013 language files. Great sources in 2021 include:

PES-Patch.com (search for “PES 2013 original language pack”)
PESNewUpdate (forum threads from 2015-2018, but links often updated)
Evo-Web.co.uk (Retro section – users share Google Drive links)

Look for a pack containing:

dt00_e.img (~500 MB)
dt05_e.img (~70 MB)

Why Language Files Matter in 2021

In 2021, downloading PES 2013 usually means acquiring "repack" versions or "Complete" editions that include patches (like PESEdit or FirePatch). These versions are convenient, but they often prioritize specific regions. PES 2013 Language Files: How to Update Pro

Common issues include:

The "Stadium" Bug: The game text is in English, but the commentary is in the wrong language.
Missing ID: The game refuses to launch because it cannot locate a specific language ID in the Windows Registry.
Foreign Defaults: You install the game, boot it up, and the menus are entirely in Russian or Polish, with no obvious way to change them in the settings menu.

Step-by-Step Installation Guide for 2021

Let’s assume you are running a Windows 10 or Windows 11 PC with a modded PES 2013 (2021 season patch).

Goal: Change in-game text and commentary to English. Legal and safety notes

Step 1: Backup your current files. Navigate to Pro Evolution Soccer 2013\img. Rename your existing dt00_e.img to dt00_e_OLD.img. Do the same for dt01_e.img.

Step 2: Download the correct files. Ensure you download files specifically for PES 2013 (Version 1.04). Files from PES 2012 or PES 2014 will cause a crash.

Step 3: Place the new files. Copy the freshly downloaded dt00_e.img and dt01_e.img into the img folder.

Step 4: Edit the Settings.exe (Crucial for 2021). Go to your PES 2013 root folder and open Settings.exe.

Click the "Language" dropdown (Bottom left).
Select "English (UK)" for text.
Select "English (US)" for commentary (or vice versa).
Note: The names must match the file code. dt00_e = English text.

Step 5: Launch the Game. If the game crashes immediately, you have a file mismatch. Delete the new files and restore your backup. If it works, enjoy Jon Champion’s vintage commentary on your 2021-2022 modded kits.
