Stumble Guys is one of the biggest free-to-play games in the US, ranked 16th by Sensor Tower and the 12th biggest US action game on Google Play. First launched on mobile, the game is now available on Xbox and PlayStation with over 50 million monthly players. A release on Nintendo Switch is expected this year. The My Hero Academia anime series, which is streamed on Crunchyroll, is described as follows: “Izuku has dreamed of becoming a hero his entire life—a lofty goal for anyone, but especially difficult for a kid without superpowers. That's right, in a world where eighty percent of the population has some kind of superpower 'quirk,' Izuku was unlucky enough to be born completely normal. But that's not enough to stop him from enrolling in one of the most prestigious hero academies in the world.”
