How Do You Unlock Free Characters in My Hero Ultra Rumble?

There are 3 main methods that allow you to play as other characters for free in My Hero Ultra Rumble:

To use the Change Character menu, go to the main menu where your selected character is visible, and make sure they are highlighted. You’ll see the ‘Change Character’ option where you can use Character Tickets to buy them or run a field test using a Rental Ticket. To use the Roll feature, from the same main menu, hit ‘RB’ / ‘R’ / ‘R1’ until you see the Roll menu.

Which Methods Are Better to Get a New Character in MHA Ultra Rumble?

Of these three methods, the first two will give the characters permanently. Certain characters like Denki, Itsuka, and Tenya are available to purchase, while others are curiously unmarked in the Change Character menu despite being locked. These ones you’ll have to win in the Roll gacha, and you’d be surprised by how quickly you’ll get some even on your first day of playing. That being said, as a gacha mechanic, it’ll likely involve some grinding, so be ready to make a wish when the time comes to roll.

Finally, the last option is best reserved for if you really want to test out a character you can buy before pulling the trigger. You’ll typically get your first set of Rental Tickets after clearing the Tutorial, but these are far more limited so it’s best to hold off until you want a genuine field test. I’d recommend spreading these tickets across multiple different characters to get the most out of it.
