Season 16 Original Gallery Illustrations
■ Royal Straight Flush!!
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have arrived!" The crimson opera curtain sweeps open as countless playing cards flutter through the air. Standing before the audience are the Symbol of Peace in dazzling attire — All Might — and America's No. 1 Hero, Star and Stripe. With this strongest duo on the stage, there truly is no room for villains.
■ Two Resistances
Overhaul and Lady Nagant, clad in cutting-edge costumes obtained through underground channels, conspire in secret. United by shared doubts about hero society itself — distinct even from the League of Villains' ideology — the two exchange words. "Why did you team up with me?" "…Who knows. Call it a coincidence of interests." Neither heroes nor villains, the trigger for change is about to be pulled by these two.
About MY HERO ULTRA RUMBLE
MY HERO ULTRA RUMBLE is the first free-to-play online multiplayer game based on My Hero Academia, available on Nintendo Switch™, PlayStation®4, STEAM®, and Xbox One. The game has surpassed 10 million downloads worldwide.
Point 1: Win a 24-Player Battle Royale
Teams of 3 compete in an 8-team battle royale. Players land on a vast stage, and as time passes the combat zone shrinks, with the goal of being the last team standing.
Point 2: Make the Most of Each Character's Quirk
Each hero and villain has unique strengths based on their Quirks. Players control My Hero Academia characters in third-person, aiming at enemies and unleashing their Quirks. Quirk skills can be leveled up using "Quirk Skill Cards" found scattered across the field, dramatically boosting both appearance and effect.
Point 3: Act Like a Hero or a Villain
Contributing to the team goes beyond defeating opponents. Civilians stranded on the stage also play an important role in determining the outcome. Heroes can rescue them, while villains can threaten them — each action staying true to their nature earns powerful items that contribute to the team.
Platform: Nintendo Switch™ / PlayStation®4 / STEAM® / Xbox One
Genre: My Hero Academia Multi-Player Action
Price: Free-to-play (some in-app purchases)
