The developers have opened the registrations for the closed-beta testing period, which will end on January 28, 2022, at 18:00 JST.

The official release date for the battle royale title is yet to be announced. However, the developers have revealed that the game will be coming out for the following platforms: PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC via Steam.
For the beta test period, the shounen-inspired anime game will have 12 playable characters who are:
My Hero Academia: Ultra Rumble will be a 24-player, team-based battle royale game where players will be grouped into 8 teams, with each squad having 3 players each.
To those wondering, Quirks will be available during combat, and it will be quite interesting to see how Bandai Namco is able to balance abilities like the One for All and make it fit the overall game mechanics.
When it comes to gameplay, players will need to collect skill cards which will be scattered throughout the stage. These cards will help strengthen the Quirks of their chosen characters, however, the game will allow a bit of customization here as it will allow the player to pick which Quirk Skill they will want to improve. This alone will add a lot of versatility to game play.
