A new battle royale based on the popular anime My Hero Academia is released. A total of 24 people clash in groups of three, and teamwork to strengthen individuality emerges as the key.

Bandai Namco Entertainment unveiled its new battle royale title ‘My Hero Academia Ultra Rumble’ on the 17th. Several heroes and villains appearing in the original work appear, and each character has a different personality. The key is team play, where three characters with different personalities form a team. You need to gather strength in a way that preserves the character’s strengths and compensates for their weaknesses, and you can strengthen your personality by collecting skill cards scattered on the stage. Each character has different skill cards that can be used, so you need to collect skill cards that you and your allies can use to increase the overall power of your team.

In addition, there is a part that made use of the original setting that dealt with the clash between the hero and the villain. There are citizens who have not been able to evacuate all over the stage where the confrontation takes place. The hero side must rescue the citizens, and the villain side must attack the citizens on the contrary. Taking actions appropriate for each faction will benefit the entire team.
