The club was founded by former K–W United owner Barry MacLean along with John Dorn with former Major League Soccer player Tim Regan serving as the inaugural head coach. The club was announced as a new expansion club, set to begin play in the 2020 season, however, their entrance was delayed to 2021, as the 2020 season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Their entrance was further delayed, with the team announcing in January 2022 that they would begin play in the 2022 season.
Peoria City played their first match on May 14, 2022, where a crowd of 1,114 were in attendance to watch a 2–2 draw against Minneapolis City SC. On July 15, Peoria City qualified for the USL League 2 playoffs with the second seed in the division after it won the head-to-head tiebreaker against the Thunder Bay Chill. The team lost 3–1 in the first round of the playoffs to Chicago FC United at Atwood Stadium in Flint, Michigan.
In their third year, Peoria City went on a remarkable "Cinderella run" finishing the season with a record of 12-4-5 after winning four straight playoff games. Peoria was chosen to host the USL2 National Championship game which drew a record crowd of over 3,100 people. Peoria lost in the Championship final 3-2 to Seacoast United, to claim the National Runner-up.
