My Hero Academia: The Strongest Announces EOS After 4 Years of Service

My Hero Academia: The Strongest, the popular mobile action RPG based on Kohei Horikoshi's anime, is shutting down. Xin Yuan Studios, the game's developer, recently announced the end of service (EOS). Published globally in May 2021 by Sony Pictures Television, KOMOE Game Corporation, and A-Plus Japan, the game allowed players to explore the My Hero Academia universe, recruit iconic characters like Deku, Bakugo, and Todoroki, and embark on missions within a detailed open world.

My Hero Academia: The Strongest Shutdown Date

The game's servers will officially shut down on March 31st, 2025. On February 24th, 2025, the game was removed from the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store, and in-app purchases were disabled. Following the server shutdown, all official social media accounts will be deactivated. However, customer support will remain available for an additional 30 days to address any player inquiries. Players who made purchases between January 25th and February 24th, 2025, are eligible for a refund before the servers close. As a final farewell, all players will receive a reward mail containing SSS+ Limited Time Heroes and 100,000 Hero Coins. Details can be found on the game's official website.

Reasons for Shutdown

The closure of My Hero Academia: The Strongest, while unfortunate, isn't entirely unexpected in the gacha game landscape. The game enjoyed a successful launch, boasting solid PvP combat and a weighty battle system. However, after its first anniversary, major updates ceased, and issues related to mismanagement became apparent. Despite the lack of consistent updates, the game remarkably persevered for approximately four years.
