Member Nov 20, 2017 48,753 Kingdom of Corona I was about to share this. Glad I refreshed and saw this thread. The stream still live  Granjinhaa Member Dec 28, 2023 9,290 checked a bit of the stream today and i'm surprised at how much stuff there is in the game. looks really cool. day 1 on xbox (also wild it's coming to xbox lol)   koutoru Member Oct 27, 2017 1,403 I'm actually very interested in this one, even though I've never played an Inazuma eleven game before.   Jake2byFour Member Oct 28, 2017 5,132 digital only pass   ZeroDS "This guy are sick" The Fallen Oct 29, 2017 3,640 Fingers crossed this is good. Loved this on ds   KanameYuuki Member Dec 23, 2017 3,034 Colombia Is this the first 3rd party game to be announced for Switch 2 outside of the direct?   RagingAvatar Member Oct 25, 2017 842 Manchester This looks ace and is exactly what I want from an Inazuma, I think I'll get it for Xbox and Switch 2. Bit concerned that cross-save and cross-play might mean it isn't playable offline? Did they mention this? I haven't watched the whole presentation yet.  Kouriozan Member Oct 25, 2017 24,298 Can't wait to see the improvements over the demo because the controls there were really confused, I couldn't get into it after the story mode.   BassForever One Winged Slayer Member Oct 25, 2017 31,487 CT KanameYuuki said: Is this the first 3rd party game to be announced for Switch 2 outside of the direct?

Shadow Generations I believe was the first, unless you count Yooka Replayee last year   Pentagon Member Mar 14, 2025 40 Overwhelmingly excited for this one, it's been a long wait but the game looks absolutely chock full of content that I can't wait to sink my teeth into. Lack of physical release is pretty gutting though. A lot of character designs look extremely Megaton Musashi-like, especially in the Chronicle mode. But if you play all of Hino's games you notice he seems to latch onto certain ideas and designs and reuse them (case in point, The Snack World's protag being identical to a main character from Inazuma Eleven GO). I hope they actually do some sustained marketing for this one. Long gone are the days of Nintendo promoting their stuff in Europe. But hopefully the multi-platform release will get a few more people to try the series out. It's really special, unique and with a great attention to detail throughout.  Last edited: 32 minutes ago wrowa Member Oct 25, 2017 4,690 It's kinda wild that Level-5 has messed up their international partner network in a way that they are unable to organize retail releases outside of Japan for both Fantasy Life and Inazuma Eleven.   Adhrast Member Jan 17, 2018 846 Is there a single player campaign or is this strictly a multiplayer game?   LProtagonist Avenger Oct 27, 2017 8,759 I remember getting excited at being able to play... I think the first game in English finally. It was a little weak in terms of strategy in that there were clearly the best players you wanted to use. I can't remember if any of the others came out in the US or not. When I heard this one was going to be a WW release I was excited, but man it's taken forever to get here. I hope it's got a bit more in terms of being able to put together a team with some strategy involved. Did the other games after the first one do this at all?  OP OP --R Being sued right now, please help me find a lawyer Member Oct 25, 2017 15,222 Adhrast said: Is there a single player campaign or is this strictly a multiplayer game?

Interesting, so the paid upgrade is only going from Switch -> Switch 2 but free on all other console platforms?   Kouriozan Member Oct 25, 2017 24,298 Also I hope they make an anime of this after the game release, and please have more budget than Orion lmao   Charamiwa Member Oct 25, 2017 6,378 Pentagon said: This detail, from the official website, is likely going to see it get swept up in the Switch 2 pricing outrage. https://www.inazuma.jp/victory-road/en/product/ Click to expand...

There's no physical release.   Pentagon Member Mar 14, 2025 40 I see no reason a Switch 2 version shouldn't be the same price as PS5/XB given it is supposed to be on par with them (if not lesser to them). Can only imagine this is a case of charging extra simply because it is possible for them to do so. But it's not going to go down well. Jake2byFour said: Hope it does good for level 5 sake but after megaton Musashi basically got no advertisement, I don't know. Click to expand... Click to shrink... I fear for Level-5 going forward. They're making huge, ambitious games and releasing them to little fanfare and with next to no marketing (in the English-speaking world, at least). Victory Road has been in development for 9 years under various names, it must've cost them a fortune, and is in an already niche series to begin with. Presumably they're doing well in Japan? Are they surviving on leftover Yokai Watch money?   OP OP --R Being sued right now, please help me find a lawyer Member Oct 25, 2017 15,222 Homura said: Apparently this is an always online game?

It's easier to say that than say it's because they have no distribution set-up outside of Japan.  Rosebud Two Pieces Member Apr 16, 2018 50,367 Just finished the video and damn, that's SO much more than I was hoping for.

I don't think the game will be balanced at all (or be that well designed) but fuck does this look absolutely massive. It gives Hyrule Warriors 1 vibes of absolute fanservice and absurd endless content.

As someone who streamed through the whole series and even imported a PAL 3DS with a capture card I'm very excited. This was announced in its original incarnation in 2016. 9 years and it's actually happening. I'm weirdly emotional
