Victory is a 1984 album by The Jacksons for CBS/Epic Records. It was the first and only album to include all six Jackson brothers together on one record.

After a successful reunion on the Motown 25 television special in 1983, Jermaine Jackson decided to return to the group, having left Motown after nine years as a full-fledged soloist. His brothers had left Motown in 1975. Tensions reportedly grew between the brothers during the recording sessions; as a result, little publicity photography was done, and an illustration was commissioned for the album cover.

Victory was supported by the Victory Tour, with lead singer Michael Jackson, who had recently released his best-selling album Thriller, prominently featured. Shortly after the tour ended, Michael and Marlon Jackson quit the band. Jermaine, Tito, Randy and Jackie Jackson continued on as the Jacksons, and releasing one more album, 1989's 2300 Jackson Street, before splitting up for good.
