Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road Final Trailers, New Features, and a Glimpse Toward the Future

Level-5 has unveiled a wave of final details for Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road, including its closing theme song video, performance specs across platforms, and even hints of a sequel. The information arrived during the latest “INA-DAI” broadcast ahead of the game’s worldwide launch on November 13 (via Gematsu).

Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road will be the biggest graphical leap in the series’ history, boasting 4K visuals and 600-120 FPS, depending on the platform. PlayStation 5 Pro and Xbox Series X versions can reach 120 FPS, while the standard PS5 and PS4 Pro editions hold steady at 60 FPS in 4K. The Switch 2 version also supports 4K / 60 FPS in Dock mode, while the original Switch tops out at 1080p / 30 FPS. The PC version supports ultrawide 21:9 monitors and can surpass 120 FPS should one have the adequate hardware.

Level-5 president Akihiro Hino confirmed the studio has dropped handheld-exclusive features like portrait mode and stylus input to maintain fair cross-platform balance. In their place, the team has added mouse controls, available at launch for PC and Switch 2, and coming to PlayStation 5 in a post-launch update. Gematsu speculates that support for Xbox systems is likely to follow. On Switch 2, mouse input works through the Joy-Cons.

In terms of gameplay, Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road will feature over 5,400 collectible characters, a massive roster managed through a new player bank system. Players can store and transfer athletes between the bank and active save data, similar to leaving party members at an RPG tavern. Importantly, Hino confirmed that Player Bank data will carry over to the next installment, allowing progress and collections to persist in a future sequel.

Launching on October 22 will be Inagle, a companion web app accessible via PC and smartphones. It lets users browse player stats and, later, share their own team build online — essentially a community hub for scouting and sharing talent.

LEVEL-5 will host a four-hour special event titled Inazuma Eleven New Era Kickoff Eve Festival on November 10, featuring guests and new reveals just days before launch.

Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road releases November 13 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Switch 2, PlayStation 4, Switch, and PC. The release of Victory Road will mark the Inazuma Eleven series’ first major release since 2010.
