The mobile action RPG, My Hero Academia: The Strongest, developed by Xin Yuan Studios and based on Kohei Horikoshi's acclaimed anime, has reached its end of service (EOS). Launched globally in May 2021, the game, published by Sony Pictures Television, KOMOE Game Corporation, and A-Plus Japan, allowed fans to immerse themselves in the My Hero Academia universe. Players could recruit iconic characters such as Deku, Bakugo, and Todoroki to embark on missions within an intricately designed open world.
When Is My Hero Academia: The Strongest Shutting Down?
The game's servers are scheduled to shut down on March 31st, 2025. As of February 24th, 2025, the game has been removed from both the Google Play Store and the iOS App Store for new downloads, and in-game purchases have been disabled. Following the server shutdown on March 31st, all official social media accounts associated with the game will be deleted. However, the customer support team will remain active for an additional 30 days to address any inquiries. Players who made purchases between January 25th and February 24th, 2025, can apply for refunds before the servers go offline.
As a farewell gesture, the developers have prepared a special gift for all existing players. Every player will receive a reward mail containing SSS+ Limited Time Heroes and 100,000 Hero Coins. More details about this can be found on the game's official website.
Why Is It Shutting Down?
The closure of My Hero Academia: The Strongest is not uncommon in the world of gacha RPGs. Despite a promising launch and a robust PvP system without lag, alongside a compelling combat system, the game's popularity waned over time. The absence of significant updates post its first anniversary and evident mismanagement contributed to its decline. It's noteworthy that the game managed to sustain itself for nearly four years without consistent updates.
