My Hero Academia: All's Justice (2026)

That’s another review in the bag, folks. As much as I found the game enjoyable and was even playable for someone who mostly button-mashes, I just found the game to be a pretty standard arena fighter. It doesn’t break the mould but slots in nicely. I can see fans of the anime picking it up for a quick bit of fun, but I can’t see it having much staying power when going up against others in the genre.

Even though I do love this game I wouldn’t say that it revolutionises the fighting or 3D arena genre, but it does pack it full of My Hero Academia goodness that I’ m more than happy. For me it is brilliant to come back and play through the Final Wars arc in story mode, and I loved the 3v3 battles that My Hero Academia All Justiceoffers. It doesn’t reinvent the arena fighter formula, but it executes it confidently while delivering the emotional payoff fans have waited years for.

My Hero Academia: All's Justice is, at times, Byking's best entry in the series, taking some ambitious swings that don't always hit. The story mode, while frustrating at times, is servicable, and there are a few modes worth checking out. Unfortunately, limitations with the Rising system, a lack of stages, and the clunkiness of Team-Up Mission can leave you with a sour taste. All's Justice is a fun time for existing fans, but it makes no sense for a newcomer to start here.

On one hand, I really enjoyed my time with this. On the other hand, I’m not sure if I’d be able to recommend this if it wasn’t a game based on one of my favorite anime. It’s definitely for the diehard fans that know the source material and have been keeping up with the series for years. If it weren’t for some of the balancing issues, I wouldn’t have minded some of the painful flaws. Sadly here, if you remove one issue, another two grow in its place.

My Hero Academia: All’s Justice impresses with a solid story mode, one of the best rosters, and a fully revamped combat system. Every character feels unique, and the new Rising and tag systems add tremendous depth to the fights. It’s an anime fighter that will make fans’ hearts race, even if technical issues and repetitiveness in the otherwise very successful “Team-Up Mission” mode detract from the overall impression.
