My Hero Academia mobile game launch

Entities: KLab Co., Ltd. · My Hero Academia · UNITED SURVIVAL · Tokimeki no Kyoten · Muumuu Peka

Overview

In early August 2026, Japanese developer KLab announced its new free‑to‑play mobile title “My Hero Academia UNITED SURVIVAL”. The roguelite hero‑action game, featuring team‑based play and original scenarios from the anime, was slated for worldwide release (excluding mainland China) on 6 August 2026 across iOS, Android and Windows.

Pre‑registration quickly exceeded expectations: 700,000 sign‑ups were reported on 3 August, rising to over 800,000 by 5 August, which unlocked additional reward tiers for 900,000 and 1 million registrations. The milestone tracking continued, and on the eve of launch the game surpassed one million pre‑registrations globally. This triggered a commemorative LR collection “Victory!! Standing!!” reward and a 30‑day “Start‑Dash Login Bonus” offering 30,000 Hero Stones and other items.

KLab partnered with gumi on development, and a dedicated “HiroSaba Web Shop” was opened, providing discounted Hero Stone packs and a daily free “tonkatsu bento”. The launch proceeded as scheduled on 6 August, delivering the promised free‑to‑play experience to fans worldwide.

The same period also saw the debut of the short‑anime series “Tokimeki no Kyoten”, produced by Imagica Infos and streamed on YouTube, underscoring a broader push of Japanese entertainment content in August 2026.
