The game is a further extension of Tecmo's "Cinematic Soccer" genre of games that appeared previously in other platforms, with the player watching from a cinematic angle and having to choose his actions rom a timed list, with the results of these actions being animated on screen.
It is also notable for being the first CD-ROM based Captain Tsubasa video game, featuring improved spoken cutscenes with the purpose of retelling the original Captain Tsubasa story more closely to watching the anime.
