My Hero Academia Sets New 2026 Release Window After Final Season Debut
My Hero Academia fans finally have a firm date for the franchise’s next big release. The anime’s final season is already available in English after premiering in October 2025, and earlier this year a new My Hero Academia episode titled “More” launched on May 2. While the mainline series has wrapped up, the wider universe keeps expanding—so attention is now shifting to what’s coming next.
More Anime Releases, Plus a New Game on the Way
Even with the primary My Hero Academia anime concluded, there’s still plenty in the pipeline for players and viewers. For instance, My Hero Academia: Vigilantes continues the story as a spin-off and prequel to the mainline saga. On the game side, My Hero Academia: United Survival is scheduled to arrive this fall in 2026. Separately, Demon Slayer fans are also getting a new release later this year, with a launch set for October 29.
My Hero Academia: United Survival Launches November 23 on PC and Mobile
My Hero Academia: United Survival is a new free-to-play roguelike action game planned for PC and mobile. The title is set to release on November 23 this fall, and it’s aiming to blend quick, stylish combat with the repeatable structure roguelikes are known for. Instead of only focusing on a single playthrough, the game is built to keep players returning, using a roster of beloved heroes and villains from the anime to form their squads and tackle each run.

United Survival is taking a different route from earlier My Hero Academia games. Rather than leaning entirely on standard action gameplay, it’s centered on roguelike runs where your character power grows as you progress. Across runs, players will unlock upgrades, try out different team setups, and chase the “one more run” feeling fans expect from the genre. Each run is meant to unfold differently, and permanent character progression is included to encourage continued improvement between missions—so you can keep strengthening your favorite My Hero Academia fighters over time.
Other confirmed features include:
- Fast-paced action combat that revolves around each My Hero Academia character’s Quirk.
- Squad building with three characters at a time, letting players combine both heroes and villains.
- Ultimate attacks and combo abilities so teammates can coordinate together.
- Roguelike progression where upgrades and builds vary from run to run.
- Original story content created specifically for the game, alongside material inspired by the anime.
Playable Heroes and Villains, and What the Story Loop Promises
The confirmed launch roster includes a selection of fan favorites from across the series. Playable characters confirmed so far are Izuku Midoriya, Katsuki Bakugo, Ochaco Uraraka, Tenya Iida, Shoto Todoroki, Tsuyu Asui, and Himiko Toga. With the game’s combat built around forming three-character teams, experimenting with powerful Quirk combinations appears to be one of the biggest hooks.

In My Hero Academia, some humans have superpowers known as quirks. Izuku Midoriya—nicknamed Deku—is not one of them. Deku has long idolized heroes, including the number one hero All Might, and from childhood he’s wanted to become a hero himself. Still, the absence of a quirk has held him back. That changes after a chance encounter with All Might following Deku discovering a classmate in danger, which sets him on the road toward becoming a real hero.
My Hero Academia follows Deku and a class of heroes-in-training at UA. The school is where young quirk users are shaped into future heroes through staged rescue missions, combat practice, and other training designed to “temper” them for hero life. With young Deku eventually inheriting the “One-For-All” quirk, he learns what it truly means to be a hero while facing off against ruthless supervillains.
