With more than 100 million copies of the original comic series in circulation worldwide, My Hero Academia is a certified hit. And this superpowered world has come to the App Store in the form of a new game: My Hero Academia United Survival.
Here’s what you need to know about United Survival as an aspiring champion-in-training.
Every fight proves your valour
Battles here come in different modes. In Main Story mode, you’ll be playing through the My Hero Academia anime in stages, each featuring a mission otherwise known as a Wave. Meeting conditions such as “Defeat 3,000 of the impeding targets!” earns you rewards. And before you begin, it’s always a good idea to check the Stage Descriptions for intel on the enemy.
Once you’re on the battlefield, you’ll be confronted by massive hordes of villains from all directions. Your character’s Quirk gives you an invaluable advantage in mowing down enemies, and the power of the Ultimate Moves will be extra handy when the situation turns dire.
Peril is almost always near, but you won’t fight alone. Your team of three can include other heroes and villains alike, which means you can stand shoulder to shoulder with your favourite characters from the series, no matter which side they’re on.
Heroes are made, not born
To win battles, character development is more important above all else. In addition to raising your level with the experience points earned from battles, you can enhance your characters with Equipment and Collections.
Equipment can be obtained as stage-clear rewards or through Enlist, giving characters a boost in their abilities. Some Equipment has special effects, allowing for adjustments to suit your preferred combat style.
Collection cards are based on memorable scenes from the anime, and equipping them can significantly enhance your character’s abilities. In addition to serving as enhancement items, Collections also give you a way to look back on the My Hero Academia story.
Develop your favourite characters, form a powerful team and take on the battles against the oncoming villains – even if you may be one yourself!
