How does the Chronicle Mode work in Inazuma Eleven Victory Road

If you’re someone looking to spend countless hours in Inazuma Eleven Victory Road, the Chronicle Mode will be your favourite choice out of all available content in the game.

The Chronicle Mode is an exclusive piece of content that works separately from all other game modes. It allows you to recruit characters, play opponents, and progress gradually towards the primary goal. This guide will serve as a perfect explainer if you’re looking to jump into it first thing after getting your hands on Inazuma Eleven Victory Road.

Inazuma Eleven Victory Road Chronicle Mode explained

The Chronicle Mode is available from the main menu, and it’s the second option from the left (right beside the main story). You don’t have to either start or finish the main campaign to take part in Chronicle Mode. This mode has its own tutorial that you can choose to complete (or skip).

The main objective of the Chronicle Mode is to recruit from among 4,500 characters to make the best team possible. You’re doing so to stop the Mind Eater, whose aim is to destroy humanity as we know it. You will do so by using the caravan to time-travel across the series’ universe and defeat other teams.

The Chronicle Mode features all official matches that we have seen in the eight seasons of the anime, with over 150 teams to defeat. You can rewrite history, as shown in the anime, by defeating the opponents with your own team. You can also train your team and manage the players using Chronicle Dock, which allows you to create new storylines.

One of the best features of the Chronicle Mode is the ability to secure new players. As I said, there are 4,500 characters from the anime. You can recruit them using Bond Stars, which, unfortunately, have to be earned outside the Chronicle Mode.

You can then use them to summon nodes across constellations and gain new characters. Build your team as you feel like, and level up the players to strengthen your team. Unlike the main campaign, you have utmost freedom when it comes to squad customisation.

The Chronicle Mode has quickly become my favorite, and it’s an excellent choice for anyone who is looking to grind the content without having to deal with the headaches of online matches. While the ultimate challenge stays the same, there’s no one way to achieve it.
