Xin Yuan Studios has officially announced the end of service (EOS) for "My Hero Academia: The Strongest," the action RPG inspired by Kohei Horikoshi's beloved anime. Launched globally on mobile in May 2021, the game was published by Sony Pictures Television, KOMOE Game Corporation, and A-Plus Japan. It allowed players to immerse themselves in the My Hero Academia world, recruit iconic characters such as Deku, Bakugo, and Todoroki, and embark on missions within a meticulously designed open world.
When Is My Hero Academia: The Strongest Shutting Down?
The servers for "My Hero Academia: The Strongest" are 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.

Why Is It Shutting Down?
The closure of "My Hero Academia: The Strongest" comes as no surprise in the realm of gacha RPGs. The game managed to last around four years, which is noteworthy given its trajectory. Initially, it offered robust PvP experiences without lag and a combat system that felt impactful. Despite this promising start, the game's momentum waned over time. The absence of major updates since its first anniversary, coupled with mismanagement, contributed to its decline. It's remarkable that it sustained for as long as it did without consistent updates.
