Xin Yuan Studios has officially announced the end of service (EOS) for My Hero Academia: The Strongest, the action RPG based on Kohei Horikoshi's beloved anime series. Launched globally on mobile platforms in May 2021, the game was published by Sony Pictures Television, KOMOE Game Corporation, and A-Plus Japan. Players had the chance to immerse themselves in the My Hero Academia universe, recruit iconic characters like Deku, Bakugo, and Todoroki, and engage in missions within an intricately designed open world.
When Is My Hero Academia: The Strongest Shutting Down?
The servers for My Hero Academia: The Strongest are scheduled to shut down on March 31st, 2025. The game was delisted from the Google Play Store and the iOS App Store on February 24th, 2025, and in-game purchases were disabled on the same date. Post the shutdown date, all official social media accounts related to the game will be deleted. However, the customer support team 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 to apply for a refund before the servers close.
In the game's final weeks, Xin Yuan Studios has planned a farewell gift for all existing players. Each player will receive a reward mail containing SSS+ Limited Time Heroes and 100,000 Hero Coins. For more details, players can visit the game's official website.
Why Is It Shutting Down?
The closure of a gacha RPG like My Hero Academia: The Strongest is becoming an increasingly common occurrence. The game managed to survive for nearly four years, which is commendable. At its launch, it boasted a robust PvP system without lag issues, and its combat system was notably impactful.
However, the game's momentum waned over time. No significant updates were released following its first anniversary, and there were reports of mismanagement. It's remarkable that the game endured as long as it did without consistent updates.
