INAZUMA ELEVEN: Victory Road brings the beloved anime-style soccer RPG franchise back into the spotlight after years of silence. With a new story, revamped mechanics, and full cross-platform support, Level-5 attempts to rekindle the magic that made the series a cult hit in the 2000s. But does this new entry score or stumble?
Story & Setting

- 🔥 Chronicle Mode features over 4500 characters from across the series’ history.
- A fresh main story for newcomers that doesn’t require prior knowledge.

Victory Road blends real-time tactical action with classic JRPG elements. You direct your players during matches, execute special moves (like Fire Tornado or God Hand), and build your dream team across modes.
⚙️ Key Features:
- Hybrid Match Control: Mix of strategic input and real-time dribbling/shooting
- Training & Recruitment System: Deep team-building with hundreds of skills
- Online & Local Multiplayer: Competitive online leagues and couch co-op
- Customization: Create your own team name, uniforms, and club house
Visuals & Presentation
The anime aesthetic returns stronger than ever with fully animated cutscenes, flashy special attacks, and dramatic voiceovers in both English and Japanese. While the Switch version suffers occasional frame drops during crowded animations, the game runs smoothly on PS5 and PC.
Audio
