Inazuma Eleven: Cross Launches on Mobile in Japan on June 9, 2026
LEVEL-5 has confirmed the launch date for Inazuma Eleven: Cross, a new football simulation game set to debut on both Android and iOS in Japan on June 9, 2026. Developed by Aiming, this title introduces an original story featuring assistant coach Shiozawa Yo, who unexpectedly finds himself in the middle of a tournament where his team has no recollection of him. Compounding the challenge, former teammates have become rivals, with iconic characters like Gouenji and Kidou now competing against him.
In addition to the game announcement, the Japan National Team 2026 Project has been unveiled, showcasing Mark Evans (Mamoru Endo) and Jude Sharp (Yuto Kido) in national team uniforms, accompanied by new commemorative artwork. Players can expect command-based controls that allow for team customization and tactical experimentation, although the game will include a full auto-play option, which may appeal to many users.
Why it matters
Pre-registration is now open through the Google Play Store and App Store, following a closed beta test conducted in January 2026. The gameplay preview suggests a promising experience for fans of the long-running Inazuma Eleven franchise. Further updates on a potential global release date are anticipated.
