Bandai Namco Officially Reveals ‘My Hero Ultra Rumble Mobile’ with Pre-Registration Now Open

Publisher Bandai Namco Entertainment and developer Byking have officially confirmed that My Hero Ultra Rumble Mobile, a standalone smartphone adaptation of their free-to-play anime battle royale, is currently in development for iOS and Android devices.

Initial news of the mobile port broke via Shueisha’s Weekly Shōnen Jump magazine before Bandai Namco formally launched the title’s global pre-registration campaign and teaser trailer. While an exact global release date has not yet been locked in, the mobile edition is being built specifically for touchscreens and operates separately from existing console and PC platforms.

Standalone Gameplay Adjustments and Shorter Matches

My Hero Ultra Rumble Mobile retains the core structural foundation of its console and PC counterparts, pitting 24 players—split into 8 teams of 3—against one another in a shrinking arena. However, the mobile iteration introduces several key changes tailored for quick on-the-go play sessions.

• Shorter Battle Duration: Matches are designed to conclude faster than the 15-to-20-minute rounds typical of console and PC play, featuring accelerated circle shrink times.
• Touchscreen UI: The interface adds dedicated touch buttons for jumping, rolling, and activating unique character Quirks.
• Civilians System: Players can rescue or threaten civilian NPCs scattered across the map to acquire game-changing item drops.
• Quirk Skill Cards: In-game skill cards remain a core mechanic, allowing players to upgrade their character’s abilities in real time during a match.
• Developer: Byking
• Publisher: Bandai Namco Entertainment
• Platforms: iOS (App Store), Android (Google Play)
• Match Size: 24 Players (8 Teams of 3)
• Release Window: TBA
• Cross-Play Status: Mobile cross-play supported (iOS vs. Android); No console/PC cross-play

No Cross-Play or Cross-Progression with Consoles

A critical point for existing players is that My Hero Ultra Rumble Mobile will operate on completely separate servers from the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC (Steam) versions.

Bandai Namco confirmed that cross-play between mobile and console/PC platforms is not supported. Additionally, the mobile game does not support cross-progression or account data transfers, meaning players will not be able to carry over unlocked cosmetics, purchase history, or player levels from existing platform accounts. However, cross-play between iOS and Android users within the mobile version is fully supported.

Pre-Registration Campaign and Franchise Background

To celebrate the announcement, Bandai Namco launched a global pre-registration campaign on the App Store and Google Play Store. Reaching milestone targets up to 300,000 registrations will unlock exclusive rewards for all players at launch, including 200 Roll Tickets and the 100 Million Copies Commemorative Costumes for Izuku Midoriya, Katsuki Bakugo, Shoto Todoroki, and All Might.

First launched on consoles and PC in September 2023, My Hero Ultra Rumble has surpassed over 20 million downloads globally. Developed by Byking—the studio behind My Hero One’s Justice—the battle royale allows fans to control iconic heroes and villains from Kōhei Horikoshi’s smash-hit manga series, leveraging distinct team synergies and character abilities.
