Bandai Namco has announced My Hero Academia: Ultra Rumble, a new game based on the famous anime series My Hero Academia. Ultra Rumble is a free-to-play battle royale game that will be released on Steam for the Nintendo Switch, PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
My Hero Academia: Ultra Rumble
According to Gemastu, Namco unveiled the game in the newest issue of Weekly Jump. There’s no word on when it’ll be released, but according to the press release, it’ll allow users to “team up to win a 24-player rumble in multiplayer action!”
My Hero Academia: Ultra Rumble will be accessible in a closed beta test prior to its release. However, this isn’t the first time a game has been based on an anime series. Bandai Namco published My Hero Academia: Battle for All on the Nintendo 3DS in 2016, and in 2018, the developer followed up with My Hero: One’s Justice, a sequel dubbed My Hero One’s Justice 2.
My Hero Academia is a manga (Japanese comic book) series set in a universe populated by superheroes. The series has been converted into an anime and three films. It has a total of $40 million USD (approximately $50 million CAD) in international box office receipts.
Previous Games of My Hero Academia
It’s worth noting that the upcoming battle royale game isn’t the first video game adaptation of the popular anime My Hero Academia. It has previously launched two fighters as well as a mobile phone game. This time, it’ll take part in the popular battle royale mode, which is akin to popular games like “Fortnite” and “Call of Duty: Warzone.” Meanwhile, in a crossover with “Call of Duty Vanguard,” “Warzone” is introducing another anime series, “Attack on Titan,” to the battle royale genre.
