Play through the lives of Deku and other UA High students. While the combat isn't exceptionally deep the attacks are flashy and characters are all distinct from one another. Fans of My Hero Academia will get a kick out of the story and mission mode any other arena fighter fans might want to investigate more before a purchase.

Like most anime/manga games, My Hero One's Justice 2 is going to hinge on how much you love the series and characters, over anything else. There is certainly enough content and depth to justify playing, it just isn't particularly amazing outside of the novelty of it being related to My Hero Academia, over wowing players as Dragon Ball FighterZ did.

A game made for My Hero Academia fans. Easy, very simple, a bit repetetive but fun.

A bit superior to the previous iteration and spectacular without a doubt, it still is too basic compared to the 'big bosses' of the genre.

So, while My Hero One’s Justice 2 is undoubtedly a better game than the first, you’ll likely be a little disappointed with it, whether you’re a fan of My Hero Academia or not. Still, there are worse ways to spend your money.

Fun and spectacular, but not very brave. More than a sequel, My Hero One's Justice 2 is an updated version of its predecessor, more refined, more fluid and with some additional content.

My Hero One’s Justice 2 feels less like a sequel and more like a DLC expansion. Fans of the source material will likely enjoy what’s being offered here but be let down by the lack of the game’s evolution.

My Hero One's Justice improves the predecessor's formula too shyly, making it especially suitable for fans of My Hero Academy. It can be fun, but not if you are looking for an excellent quality defect-free fighting game.

My Hero One's Justice 2, is probably the best Arena Fighting game made to this date. The combat is deep and each character's play style is very unique and different from the others. The visuals and how you interact with environment is also one of the more noticeable changes in this game. But there's still no English dub for this game, which can be disappointing. There are also some technical issues that can be in way of enjoying the game, but overall the improvements (even the minor ones) are quite noticable and My Hero One's Justice 2 is one of the best anime-based games ever made.

My Hero One's Justice 2 is an incredibly fun and over the top anime fighting game, with a ton of modes to play. Although there's not been a massive amount of new content added since it's predecessor, the combat is good enough to keep you coming back for more

The sequel provides the fast-paced action expected from the superhero driven anime series.

Despite small improvements and a larger roster of characters, My Hero One’s Justice 2 doesn’t quite offer enough significant evolution in its gameplay or combat to set it apart from its first instalment.

My Hero One’s Justice 2 is a huge improvement over the original. There are a lot of neat updates to the gameplay, and the overall improved performance on the Nintendo Switch version is welcome.

Ultimately, though, what stings the most about seeing My Hero One's Justice 2 is how much hasn't changed since the first game. It's still very much a reasonably well-made and pretty anime arena fighter, but it's nothing more than that. Even the considerably messier One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows at least had the ambition to try to capture the source material's spirit through its main single-player mode. My Hero Academia fans looking for exactly that will be satisfied, but once again it seems Bandai Namco have opted to coast rather than adopt U.A.'s "Plus Ultra" philosophy.

My Hero One's Justice 2 is a far cry from the esports-ready fighter you may have wanted. It skirts along the line between woefully undercooked and passable. But for fans of the series, you'd be hard-pressed to find something even half as faithful.

It’s the whole package, pressed up against skin-tight spandex. Suit yourself up and hold on, because this game gets an A+ (ULTRAAAAAAA)!

As a sequel, My Hero One's Justice 2 does what you would expect it to do. There's an emphasis on more unlockable content and characters, but only a few changes have been made to the overall combat system. It remains a fine game for fans of the first title, and it warrants a purchase, but don't expect anything to tempt you if you weren't already impressed by the first title.

Casual and hardcore fans of My Hero Academia alike will still find something to enjoy in the game, and those looking for a fun arena brawler could still do far worse than this sequel.
