Hello everyone, I hope you’ve all had the time to dive into “My Hero Ultra Rumble” by Byking Inc, published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. It’s a unique take on the battle royale genre with a mix of character shooter mechanics.
Definitely, CompletionistMaster. It aligns perfectly with my adventurous spirit. The open-world environment, the fight to be the last one standing—it’s all very enticing. However, some Steam reviews express mixed feelings. For example, some players are unhappy with the recent addition of the T.U.N.I.N.G. system, claiming it caused an imbalance and made the game somewhat pay-to-win.
I have to agree with you there, NewGamer. The gameplay mechanics do have their moments. Controlling your character and using item buffs feels smooth and fluid. But, the T.U.N.I.N.G system does cast a shadow over the otherwise fascinating gameplay mechanics and environment interactions.
Don’t forget about the strategy involved with each game! It’s not just about speed here. It’s about going around dealing damage, surviving, and reviving teammates when they’re down. Complete objectives, get items and level up. There’s a certain pace that needs to be maintained for success.
Moving on to the story, it’s more on the lighter side. The game does provide some lore but it’s not heavily narrative-driven.
Although the story is quite light, the character roster is quite diverse. From Strike, Assault, Rapid, Technical, to Support, each character’s unique Quirk shapes the gameplay and narrative in different ways.
And the development of these characters is praiseworthy. They’ve done a good job of incorporating essential character traits from the source material. It gives personality to the characters which heavily influences gameplay.
The game’s graphics deserve mention here. The artistic style captures the essence of the original series really well. The design, character models, costumes- everything looks great and contributes to a satisfying visual experience.
Good point SpeedyGamer99, the sound design also plays a significant role in enhancing the gaming experience. It’s not mind-blowing, but it’s decent, fitting well with the graphics and gameplay.
Speaking of challenge level, the game starts off pretty easy but gradually becomes harder as you level up and get stronger opponents, just as the second Steam user review mentioned.
Which makes it valuable in terms of replayability. The different character archetypes, their quirks, and multiple objectives would definitely keep you coming back for more.
It’s common knowledge that games from Byking Inc. tend to place emphasis on replayability. In fact, the developers have mentioned that future updates to My Hero Ultra Rumble will focus on new characters and costumes, which will certainly encourage players to replay.
To wrap it up, My Hero Ultra Rumble stands out in the battle royale genre with its unique blend of character shooter mechanics and its varied character roster.
For those who enjoy this game, I would recommend ‘Fortnite’ for its emphasis on character customization and ‘Overwatch’ for its hero-based gameplay.
And for players who are looking for a balanced competitive play, ‘Apex Legends’ would be a great pick.
Or if you’re seeking for more anime-themed Battle Royale games, Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker might be worth a try. It also allows players to battle as their favorite characters in large scale battles.
And with that, we come to the end of our roundtable discussion. Happy gaming!
