Expanded Roster and Features

Get ready to assemble your dream team from a roster that’s larger than your average anime character list. The beta will let you experiment with various team combinations, formations, and play styles. It’s a chance to strategize your lineup and see who works best on the field—will you go for sheer speed, unshakable defense, or an all-out offensive?

Smooth Dribbles on Next-Gen Consoles

Expect sharper graphics, smoother animations, and faster load times as you take on rival teams. You’ll almost feel the breeze of the ball whizzing past your screen!

Take It Online

The Worldwide Beta Test Demo isn’t just a solo practice session. Challenge your friends or random players from around the globe in online matches to see who’s got the best strategy and reflexes. Just remember: with great connection speeds come great responsibilities—not to rage-quit after a last-minute goal against you.
