Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road – Everything you need to know about the ultimate football RPG

Story Mode: A New Chapter

What We Know So Far About the New Inazuma Eleven!

Introduction

After years of waiting, numerous delays, and name changes, the football world is in an uproar! Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road, the long-awaited new chapter of the popular Level-5 series, is finally nearing release. The game promises a spectacular return to the field—with innovation, nostalgia, and, as expected from Inazuma Eleven, lots of superpowers on the pitch. From brand-new gameplay mechanics to surprising platform choices—we take a look at everything we know so far about this “ultimate” Inazuma Eleven experience that is sure to excite both longtime fans and newcomers alike.

Table of Contents

Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road – An Overview

Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road is an upcoming sports RPG by Level-5. The global release is scheduled for August 21, 2025, with the Japanese release following on August 22, 2025. The game will be available on a variety of platforms, including Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, and Xbox Series X/S—making it the most widely released Inazuma Eleven title to date. The genre remains true to the series: a mix of role-playing and sports, playable in both single-player and multiplayer modes.

The Long Road to Release: A History of Delays

The development of Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road has a story of its own, marked by numerous delays and name changes that fans have patiently endured. Originally announced in 2016 as “Inazuma Eleven Ares,” the game was initially scheduled for release in 2018 on PlayStation 4, Switch, Android, and iOS. However, in December 2018, the release was pushed back to after May 2019.

In September 2019, the title was changed to “Inazuma Eleven: Great Road of Heroes,” and the release moved to 2020. More delays followed: to 2021 in April 2020 and to 2023 in April 2021. In July 2022, the game received its current name, “Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road”. In November 2023, it was delayed again to 2024, while also announcing a PlayStation 5 version and a worldwide beta in March 2024. In December 2023, a PC version was confirmed. In September 2024, a release in June 2025 was announced, but in April 2025, the final release date was set to August 21, 2025 (August 22 in Japan), including versions for the “Switch 2” and Xbox Series X/S. Unfortunately, the iOS and Android versions were canceled, and the game will be available exclusively in digital format.

Beta Tests and Community Feedback

Level-5 gave fans the opportunity to get an early look with the “Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road Worldwide Beta Test Demo,” which was released on March 18, 2024 for the Nintendo Switch. Later, on July 18, 2024, the beta version followed for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Steam. The demo included a basic story mode, an online versus mode, and a VS computer mode. For online play, a subscription to Nintendo Switch Online or PlayStation Plus was required—depending on the platform.

After the demo release, Level-5 launched a survey where players could report bugs and issues. The beta also included a gallery mode where you could unlock and view concept art of characters. As of February 2025, the demo was no longer available on the Nintendo eShop, and online play on Switch was disabled. The demo remained available on other platforms until April 11, 2025, after which offline modes were also disabled there. Overall, reactions to the beta were positive—“new elements and presentation upgrades” were very well received.

First Impressions from the Beta: A Big Step Forward?

Early gameplay sessions of the demo, including from reviewer Sheadon Gunput, show that Level-5 has put a lot of effort into making “Victory Road” the “ultimate” Inazuma Eleven experience. The characters look better than ever, and the animations are impressive. Especially the controls, which used to rely almost entirely on the Nintendo DS stylus, have been meaningfully redesigned.

New Gameplay with More Depth

The new controls using joysticks and buttons add significantly more depth to the gameplay and result in smoother matches. While it takes some getting used to, it gives you much more control over the game. Whereas earlier games offered limited options during duels, you can now try to win or keep the ball in real time. The strength of shots is now displayed as “damage,” and goalkeepers have a kind of “health bar,” making the game more transparent.

The Impact of Special Moves

The iconic special moves from “Inazuma Eleven” now work differently too. Instead of spamming them until your energy runs out, you now fill a so-called tension gauge in “Victory Road” by successfully attacking or defending. This new system makes special moves something you have to earn—many fans consider this a much better and more balanced approach.

Short Matches and Online Challenges

One downside of the demo was the short match duration (about three minutes), which sometimes made it hard to stage a comeback. The hope is that this was just a limitation of the demo and that in the final version, you'll be able to adjust match length. “Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road” is also the first game in the series with a clear focus on online multiplayer, including a ranking system. There were issues with matchmaking and connectivity, and some opponents were unfairly strong, but the online experience has great potential—once these teething problems are addressed.

The Big Showcase: All Revelations at a Glance

On April 4, 2025, Level-5 hosted the first Inazuma Showcase to reveal more about “Victory Road”. The video featured new gameplay from story mode and chronicle mode and revealed exclusive pre-order bonuses. It was clear that the graphics had been updated—especially for special techniques, cutscenes, and pitch environments. A new opening movie was also shown.

Chronicle Mode with Over 450 Characters

One of the biggest eye-catchers was the Chronicle Mode. In it, you can face legendary teams from previous games with your own squad, including the Raimon Eleven from the first game and Inazuma Japan from Inazuma Eleven 3. In total, the mode features over 450 (!) unlockable characters. It was even confirmed that all key characters from the original trilogy and from Inazuma Eleven GO are included. Fans are also speculating about possible appearances from the “Ares” anime, which aligns with the game’s earlier title.

Story Mode with a New Protagonist

In story mode, you play as Unmei Sasanami, a boy who originally has nothing to do with football. But through an encounter with Haru Endo—a supernatural talent—he’s drawn into the world of football adventure. The story takes place at Nagumohara High School, where you and your teammates face off against teams from around the world. Many of these characters were designed specifically for this game. According to Level-5, the story mode is not only about sport, but also about personal character development.

Chronicle Keys and Pre-Order Bonuses

Players who pre-order the game will receive three “Chronicle Keys,” which unlock special matches. These include matches against Team Ogre (from Inazuma Eleven 3), Team Zero (from Inazuma Eleven GO Chrono Stones), and Reizeijima College from the anime. These matches are special as you can only access them with a key. More keys are planned to be released later through updates and missions.

Editions and Platforms

“Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road” will be released worldwide on August 21, 2025, digitally on Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PS4, PS5, Windows, and Xbox Series X/S. There will be two editions: a Standard version and a Deluxe version. The Deluxe version includes extra content like special techniques, uniforms, and possibly exclusive characters for Chronicle Mode. There will be no physical version—the game will be digital only. Whether the game will support cross-play between platforms is not yet officially confirmed, but many fans hope it will.

The Nintendo Switch 2: Your Adventure Continues Anywhere!

The Nintendo Switch 2 is here and once again shaking up the gaming world! Forget the days when you had to choose between gaming on the couch or on the go – with the Switch 2, those days are over. This small but incredibly powerful console brings your games to life on a larger, brighter screen – or blasts them onto your TV in stunning 4K*. Are you ready to dive into a world where your gaming experience never ends – even if the bus driver is already annoyed that you missed your stop?

Nintendo Switch 2: Handheld and TV Console in One – No More Tough Choices!

Remember the days when you were stuck on the couch just to continue The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild? Or when you had to choose between a family visit and your gaming session? The Nintendo Switch 2 puts an end to that! The Switch 2 is the ultimate gaming companion – whether you're heading to your mom’s house or visiting a friend. No more difference between TV and handheld gaming: everything flows seamlessly. And trust me: with games like Mario Kart World coming to life on the larger 1080p display (or in 4K* on your TV!), you'll want to take this console everywhere. You'll wonder how you ever lived without it!

Local Multiplayer Gaming with the Nintendo Switch 2: Fun for Two (or More!)

The Switch 2 is not only your personal gaming hub – it’s also a true party hit! Thanks to the included Joy-Con 2 controllers and the handy tabletop mode, you can turn any place into a multiplayer arena. Whether you're racing in Mario Kart World with a friend or puzzling together in Snipperclips – anything is possible. The Joy-Con 2 controllers may be small, but their precision is impressive. Playing so closely together feels almost intimate – perfect for the campsite, a break in the office cafeteria, or a rainy afternoon at home with your roommate. Who says gaming is a lonely activity?

The Countless Possibilities of the Nintendo Switch 2

The flexibility of the Nintendo Switch 2 is impressive. You can hold it like a tablet and use apps via multi-touch, or place it in tabletop mode and play with the detached Joy-Con 2 controllers. No more uncomfortable hands – enjoy the game relaxed on your armrest or behind your back! The Joy-Con 2 controllers are true technological marvels, with precise motion controls for games like Arms and finely tuned vibrations that make it feel like ice cubes are rattling inside – just like in 1-2 Switch. Yes, you can even milk virtual cows – if you want! Plus, up to eight Nintendo Switch 2 consoles can be connected wirelessly for epic multiplayer sessions. With the press of a button, you can capture screenshots of your best gaming moments. And of course, the Joy-Con 2 controllers also support amiibo! The Nintendo Switch 2 is a true Swiss Army knife among consoles.

The Cost of the Nintendo Switch 2: Is the Price Justified?

Let’s be honest: the Nintendo Switch 2 isn’t cheap. The console itself costs around 330 euros. But that’s not all! Of course, you’ll want Mario Kart World (60 euros), maybe a comfortable Pro Controller (70 euros) for longer sessions, and definitely a Nintendo Switch 2 Case (20 euros) to protect your new console. Be sure to check out the Oniverse Nintendo Switch 2 Carrying Case Black or the Oniverse Nintendo Switch 2 Switch OLED Carrying Case Grey. And then there’s storage: 256 GB can fill up quickly with digital games – so a microSD Express card is almost a must. Fortunately, many games are also available on cartridges. They not only look good on the shelf but also save space! Keep them safe in the Casecentive 24 Game Cards Portable Storage Box. Sure, it adds up – but in return, you get endless fun, whenever and wherever you want!

The Design of the Nintendo Switch 2: Beautiful and Thoughtful!

The Nintendo Switch 2 is a real eye-catcher and feels great in the hand. “Not nearly as plasticky as you’d expect from Nintendo,” is something you often hear. The sleek design feels high-end. And although the display “only” shows 1080p in handheld mode (4K* on the TV), Mario Kart World looks simply stunning – sometimes even sharper than on the TV. That’s due to the high pixel density on the smaller screen. Buttons, sticks, and triggers are ergonomically placed – even after hours of play. And the neon red and blue Joy-Con 2 controllers? Not only do they help distinguish left from right – they also give the console that typical Nintendo charm. For an even better grip, we recommend the Oniverse Nintendo Switch 2 Pack of 2 Comfort Grips Orange/Blue!

The Nintendo Switch 2 Is a Good Friend (and a Little Addictive)

Despite the price and a still-growing game library, the Nintendo Switch 2 has already become a loyal companion for many. You simply pull it from the dock next to your TV and take it with you anywhere. The battery lasts well, and the USB-C port is a blessing: no more lugging around a bulky dock. For the perfect charging solution for all your Joy-Con 2 controllers, check out the Oniverse Nintendo Switch 2 Charging Stand for 4 Joycons. In short: the Nintendo Switch 2 is one of those consoles you’ll soon wonder how you ever lived without.

Typical Nintendo: A Fresh Breeze in the Gaming World

Technical specs are important, but the real magic of the Nintendo Switch 2 lies in the complete package. It’s significantly more powerful than its predecessor – an impressive handheld console and a full-featured TV console at the same time. But what really stands out is the thoughtful, flexible design. It adapts to any situation and always delivers the best possible gaming experience. That makes it unique and sets it apart from the competition. I’m sure even Hiroshi Yamauchi, Nintendo’s visionary ex-president, would have nodded in approval. For the full package, we recommend the Oniverse 8-in-1 Starter Kit Nintendo Switch 2 and the Oniverse Nintendo Switch 2 Screen Protector. And for racing game fans, there’s the Oniverse Racing Wheel Nintendo Switch 2 Controller Holder 2-Pack – because who doesn’t want to race like a pro, even on the bus?
