Level-5 has revealed INAZUMA ELEVEN: Victory Road will be coming to PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 in 2024. The newest entry to the soccer RPG series was previously planned for a 2023 release.
Inazuma Eleven is a multimedia franchise which has soccer RPGs as its game counterparts. The new game is the first to be available on PlayStation systems and features cross-save and cross-play with the Nintendo Switch.
Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road tells the story of Unmei Sasanami, a young man who wishes to leave the world of soccer behind. However, after meeting the “monster player” Haru Endo, and meeting new friends at Nagumohara Junior High, his passion for the sport comes back.
The soccer RPG features:
- a Story Mode focused on Unmei’s tale;
- a Chronicle Mode with over 4,500 playable characters, featuring pretty much all the options from previous games, except a few collabs;
- multiple online PvP modes for casual and ranked matches.
