Which Hero Academia Characters Appear In The Official Video Game?

Man, if you’re into the franchise like I am, the easiest way to think about which characters show up in the official games is: the main students, the top pros, and the big-name villains all make repeat appearances. I’ve spent evenings couch-co-op-ing 'My Hero One's Justice' with friends and grinding mobile events in 'My Hero Academia: The Strongest Hero', and across those titles you’ll reliably see Izuku Midoriya (Deku), Katsuki Bakugo, Shoto Todoroki, Ochaco Uraraka, Tenya Iida, and a bunch of other Class 1-A favorites like Momo Yaoyorozu, Eijiro Kirishima, Fumikage Tokoyami, Denki Kaminari, Kyoka Jiro, Tsuyu Asui, and Mina Ashido.

Pro heroes and villains also appear a lot — All Might, Endeavor, Hawks, and sometimes heroes like Mirko or Mirio get into the rosters depending on the game and DLC. On the villain side you’ll commonly see Tomura Shigaraki, Dabi, Himiko Toga, Kurogiri, All For One (or his influence), and various Nomu or underlings. The console fighters ('My Hero One's Justice' and 'My Hero One's Justice 2') tend to focus on big, choosable combatants, while mobile titles like 'The Strongest Hero' or the old 'My Hero Academia: Smash Tap' include many more side characters, skins, and event-limited heroes.

If you want a complete list for a specific title, the in-game roster or the official store/Steam page usually has the up-to-date breakdown — DLC and seasonal collaborations can add surprising faces, so check before you dive in to collect or main someone new.

I get asked this a lot by folks wanting to pick mains, and the short-ish list of regulars includes Izuku Midoriya (Deku), Katsuki Bakugo, Shoto Todoroki, Ochaco Uraraka, Tenya Iida, Momo Yaoyorozu, Eijiro Kirishima, Fumikage Tokoyami, and a host of student characters from Class 1-A. Pro heroes like All Might, Endeavor, and Hawks also appear frequently, and on the villain side expect Tomura Shigaraki, Dabi, Himiko Toga, Kurogiri, and occasionally All For One or Nomu variants.

What changes from game to game are the extras: DLC fighters, seasonal additions, and mobile-only characters. So while that core group is safe to expect across official releases, the full roster depends heavily on whether you’re playing 'My Hero One's Justice', 'My Hero One's Justice 2', 'My Hero Academia: The Strongest Hero', or older mobile titles like 'My Hero Academia: Smash Tap'. If you tell me which game you’re looking at, I can sketch a narrower, up-to-date list.
