Sony Entertainment Games has revealed a new mobile game based on the My Hero Academia franchise. My Hero Academia: The Strongest Hero is due to arrive on iOS and Android as a global release later this year. Per Gamespot, the title was first released last December in Asia.
In addition to the reveal trailer, Sony has also launched the official website, where players can pre-register for the upcoming game. It appears pre-registration will be a good way to get an early head start on special in-game bonuses and currency, such as Katsudon, Drones, Credits, Hero Coins and Recruit Tickets.
