Plus Ultra！ Basic play free Batrova "My Hero Academia ULTRA RUMBLE" announced!

Boku no Hero Ac ademia" is one of Weekly Shonen Jump's signature works that has produced numerous manga masterpieces.
I became a fan of Kohei Horikoshi (@horikoshiko) after reading "Aimagakkoku Zoo" in real time, and when I read the first episode of the original "My Hero Academia" in Jump, I was so moved that I wrinkled up the magazine with tears. I still remember it vividly.
The manga, anime, movie, stage show, game, and novelization have all been adapted into various media, so I am sure that many people have come to know of this work through the anime.
My Hero Academia" has been adapted into various game titles, and now a new game title has been announced!
The first free-to-play Battlow game in the Hero Academia series is now available!

Win 8 teams of 3 players each!

The game announced this time is " My Hero Academia ULTRA RUMBLE," an online multiplayer game in which players control the heroes from "My Hero Academia" and the enemy <ヴィラン> to survive in melee battles!
If you hear the words "online multiplayer game", you'll probably get the idea, but in a nutshell, it's a Hero Academia BATROWAR!
In the original story, each character has their own unique " personality ", and this "personality" is reflected in the game as well, allowing players to use their own unique actions.

The objective of "My Hero Academia ULTRA RUMBLE" is to survive to the end of the battle royale, which is played by 24 players in 8 teams of 3 players each.
No matter how powerful your "personality" is, it has its strengths and weaknesses.
Survive the fierce battle by forming a team that makes the most of your strengths and compensates for your weaknesses!

There are " technique cards " scattered throughout the stage.
Each character has a different set of cards that corresponds to his or her unique skills, which are strengthened by collecting cards.
The key to victory is to collect the skill cards of team members to strengthen the team as a whole.

The <ヴィラン>key to victory is to be a hero and an enemy in your <ヴィラン>own way.
There are citizens on the stage who have failed to escape, so the heroes should rescue them, the enemies <ヴィラン>should attack them, and acting in a "typical" manner will benefit the <ヴィラン>team as a whole. <ヴィラン>
It will be more immersive if you think about what you would do if you were the character you are using.
