The game was originally slated for summer 2018 as the Inazuma Eleven: Ares no Tenbin game for PS4, Switch, iOS, and Android, before its name changed to Inazuma Eleven: Eiyū-tachi no Great Road. The game has been delayed multiple times since then, and changed its title again to Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road.
Tenya Yabuno launched a manga adaptation in Shogakukan's Monthly CoroCoro Comic on November 14. Yabuno drew the Inazuma Eleven manga that was serialized in Monthly CoroCoro Comic from 2008 to 2011.
DECAPOLICE will also launch for PC via Steam and PlayStation 5 in 2026.

The game stars Harvard Marks, a rookie detective assigned to the Broadstone Police Center's Special Investigation Unit. The center uses a detective training simulator called Decasim, which creates a virtual world that completely copies reality. However, a mysterious hacker has transformed all the characters in Decasim into puppets.
Players solve cases by investigating crime scenes and analyzing evidence. After resolving the culprit's identity, players may have to face them in tactical operations, which may involve the criminal manifesting a Crime Beast.
The game is getting a television anime that will premiere at the same time as the game.
