Level 5 will be bringing the newest entry of their soccer RPG series to the west next year. The announcement of a translation was revealed during the company's 20th anniversary celebration. An anime series based on the game will begin airing in Europe later this fall, and in North America later next year. Both Europe and North America will be getting a release of the game, on Nintendo Switch, iOS, Android, and PlayStation 4. This marks a rare occasion, as a majority of the Inazuma Eleven series doesn't make it to North American shores. Inazuma Eleven Ares launches in Japan later this year.

• INAZUMA ELEVEN™ is a Super Dimensional action adventure about a team from humble beginnings rising up to keep their passion alive in the face of a corrupt elite corporation. Only when using their Special Moves can they get their point across. The latest installment in the INAZUMA ELEVEN franchise, INAZUMA ELEVEN ARES, depicts a parallel world that will feature both new characters and cast from the original in action packed, heart wrenching matches between the good, the evil, and those in between. Building on the foundation laid by previous series, which number over 250 episodes, four movies and more than eight million Nintendo games sold to date, the reboot series has begun its broadcast premiere in Asia, is scheduled to launch in Europe Fall 2018, and is planned to debut in North America for the first time in 2019. The slate also includes the premiere of the video game in 2019 with the aim to tap into the growing eSports movement.
