Inazuma Eleven is a 2008 role-playing sports video game developed and published by Level-5 for the Nintendo DS. It was released in Japan in August 2008, and was localized in English in 2011. A Nintendo 3DS port was released in the Western world on February 13, 2014, as a downloadable game via the Nintendo eShop, including updated graphics and visuals, and is the first and only game in the series available in North America. The game was also included in a compilation for the Nintendo 3DS, Inazuma Eleven 1-2-3: Endou Mamoru's Legend, which was released in Japan in December 2012.

The game has spawned a franchise, with numerous sequels and other media. The direct sequel for this game is Inazuma Eleven 2. An Inazuma Eleven manga based on the games began serialization in CoroCoro Comic in May 2008, while an anime based on the games started airing in October 2008. Mitsui has also created a collectible card game tie-in.

A remake titled Inazuma Eleven RE is slated for release on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Windows in 2026.
