Features Future My Hero Academia Games Need to Have
Original Characters/Story and Character Creation
In the past, we’ve talked about the big problem anime games have, where they desperately stick to the main story of the source material, refusing to deviate from it. My Hero One’s Justice is the perfect example of this, with a story mode that feels like the briefest of recaps you could possibly imagine.
Games like Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise and One Piece: World Seeker are looking to rectify this problem by creating bold new stories in their universes, that still use the core tenets of their source material. The world of My Hero Academia is incredibly rich and there are a ton of side characters we see pop up all the time, whether they’re students at U.A., professional heroes, or small-time villains. With such a wide array of possibilities, it’d be easy to tell an original story in the world of My Hero Academia. You could have it focus on a small-time professional hero just starting to get his footing in the industry, or maybe even a small-time villain.
Of course, one option that’d absolutely delight fans is character creation. Being able to create your own U.A. student or hero would be an absolute blast, and you could choose from a set stable of different Quirks. This could also tie into the school setting we talked about earlier, as maybe you play as your own original character making their way into Freshman year at U.A., meeting Class 1-A and others along the way.
We’ve already seen the potential side stories have with the fantastic Vigilantes manga, and there’s no reason a My Hero Academia game couldn’t have the same quality.
