Fans of *My Hero Academia: The Strongest* were hit with some disappointing news recently. Xin Yuan Studios, the developers behind this action RPG, announced the game's end of service (EOS). Based on Kohei Horikoshi’s beloved anime, the game made its global debut on mobile devices back in May 2021. Published by Sony Pictures Television, KOMOE Game Corporation, and A-Plus Japan, players were thrilled to immerse themselves in the *My Hero Academia* universe, recruit iconic characters like Deku, Bakugo, and Todoroki, and embark on missions within a meticulously crafted open world.
When Is My Hero Academia: The Strongest Shutting Down?
The countdown has begun, with the servers scheduled to shut down on March 31st, 2025. As of February 24th, 2025, the game was no longer available for download on Google Play and the iOS App Store, and in-game purchases were disabled. Post-March 31st, the servers will cease operation, and 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 player inquiries. If you made purchases between January 25th and February 24th, 2025, you're eligible to apply for a refund before the servers go offline.
In a heartfelt gesture, the developers are sending off players with a farewell gift. Every existing player will receive a reward mail containing SSS+ Limited Time Heroes and 100,000 Hero Coins during the game's final weeks. For more details, check out the game's official website.
Why Is It Shutting Down?
The closure of a gacha RPG like *My Hero Academia: The Strongest* might not come as a shock these days. Despite a robust start and lasting nearly four years, the game's momentum waned over time. Initially, it boasted lag-free PvP and a combat system that felt impactful. However, the absence of significant updates post its first anniversary, coupled with mismanagement issues, led to its eventual decline. It's noteworthy that the game managed to endure as long as it did without consistent updates.
