6The Game Will Be Based Around The Final War
All’s Justice Will Follow The Heroes' Desperate Attempts To Stop AFO And Shigaraki
During theMy Hero Academia: All’s Justicepresentation, the developers made sure to clarify that this game would be covering the final conflict in the series: the epic battle between the heroes and the last remaining villains, primarilyShigaraki and All For One. From the scenes that have been shown, it appears that the story mode will span the entire war, from its beginning to its end; needless to say, there will be a wealth of content for players to enjoy.
At the same time, the game will also feature a grittier and darker aesthetic, considering how brutal this portion of the story is in the anime and manga. The final war is the favorite arc of manyMy Hero Academiafans, so seeing it represented in a game is a great love letter to those who have stuck with the series from the very beginning.
5It’s Being Developed Alongside The Anime
Anime Fans Will Have Two Ways To Experience The Final War
To ensure the game is accurate andmeets fan standards, Bandai Namco is developingAll’s Justicewhile collaboratingwith the anime team as they createthe anime’s final season.On the one hand, this means that the dazzling animation seen in the final two seasons will be as closely replicated as possible in the game, which will undoubtedly result in some mind-blowing action sequences throughout the story mode.
However, if any story elements are slightly tweaked or changed in the final season compared to the manga, it seems likely that this will also be reflected in the game, which could open up some interesting cutscenes and interactions. At the same time, it also provides fans of the series with even more ways to enjoy this intense and exciting climax of the story.
4Attention To Graphics And Animation
All’s Justice Is Looking Like One Of The Smoothest Anime Games Out There
Anyone who has read the final arc ofMy Hero Academiain the manga will be well aware that author Horikoshi’s artwork is the best it’s ever been inthat particular arc of the story, which is saying something given how many iconic panels are scattered throughoutMHA. The developers at Bandai Namco clarified that they want to respect the stunning artistry that was on display during the war, and as a result, have paid very close attention to ensuring the graphics and animations are as fluid as possible to imitate this.
Anime fighter fans have already gotten a glimpse at this new and improved style with Bandai Namco’sDemon Slayergames, which look downright jaw-dropping from a visual perspective.My Hero Academia: All’s Justiceis going to be continuing this trend by emphasizing the style and visuals of the game to complement the high-speed action.
3All Members Of Class 1-A Are Included
Deku And The Gang Are All Here
The students ofClass 1-Aaren’t exactly treated equally in the main story ofMy Hero Academia. While some, such as Bakugo and Todoroki, may be given plenty of screen time to grow and develop as characters, there are still many others, including Tsuyu and Kouji, who are sidelined for a good portion of the story. Thankfully, no one is going to be left behind for the latest game, as it was revealed that, for the first time in a consoleMy Hero Academiagame, every student from Class 1-A will be playable.
Since the developers also ensured that characters will be able to use their Quirks as they appear in the final war, it means that many of these students will have upgraded versions of their abilities, which will be a ton of fun to use in battle. Whether Class 1-B manages to make it onto the roster, only time will tell, but it’s certainly very exciting to see Deku and the gang all present for the final game.
2All’s Justice Is A Tag Fighter
Switch Between A Team Of Three Characters On The Fly
In a typical match ofMy Hero Academia: All’s Justice, players will have three characters they are able to switch between on the fly. Only a small glimpse of this gameplay mechanic has actually been shown in action, but what has been made clear is that this is an extremely responsive system that can even be used mid-combo. So, for example, if Deku is in the middle of throwing a villain around withhis Blackwhip, he can then call in Bakugo to dish out some explosive damage up close without disrupting the flow of combat.
This seems extremely similar to the tag-in mechanic seen in theNaruto Ultimate Ninja Stormgames, though whether it will be as fast and costly as those games remains to be seen. Still, it’ll be great to see what weird and wacky teams players come up with when going online, considering there’s going to be a massive roster of characters to experiment with.
1Powerful New Rising System
Go All-Out And Unleash A Character’s True Potential
While the tag mechanic is undoubtedly the most exciting part of the gameplay shown so far, another interesting system added to the game is the Rise mode. When entering this state, a character will be able to unleash their full potential, greatly enhancing their strength and turning them into an unstoppable powerhouse for at least a few seconds.
Considering how manyQuirk Awakeningsappear in the final war of the story, there’s no doubt that characters who possess these abilities will be able to utilize them when entering their Rise mode. In the case of Deku, he was able to move at lightning-fast speeds while creating illusions of himself after he entered Rise, which gives an idea of just how powerful this mechanic is going to be in practice.
