Victory Road’ Delayed Again, Now Releasing in 2024 (Hopefully) – TouchArcade

Well, it happened again. Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road has been delayed to 2024 following its many prior delays. If you’ve not kept up with it, Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road was originally announced back in 2016, and we kept hearing more about Level-5’s new soccer RPG story since. Shaun wrote about it from TGS back in 2016. Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road is the newest entry in Level-5’s football themed cross media franchise that had some excellent games on Nintendo handhelds over the years. As of TGS this year, Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road was confirmed for 2023 release on PS5, PS4, Switch, iOS, and Android worldwide. Today, at a new showcase, Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road has been delayed to 2024 with a Switch-exclusive beta happening in March worldwide. It is still planned to hit the same platforms worldwide. Watch the new trailers and showcase videos for Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road below:

In the showcase, it was confirmed that Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road will support cross play and cross save on PS5, PS4, and Switch, but not on mobile. The slide at the end also mentioned a difference in specifications for the mobile version. We will have to wait and see what they meant by that. A lot of new features and story details were revealed.

I was skeptical for the 2023 date, and it looks like everything has been delayed to 2024 or later from the announced games. Hopefully this one doesn’t go to 2025. Have you played an Inazuma Eleven game before and what do you think of Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road so far?
