Heroes United: Fight x3 is a lawsuit just waiting to happen, so let\'s talk about it

Heroes United: Fight x3: A Surprisingly Unashamed Rip-Off RPG

Heroes United: Fight x3 is a straightforward 2D hero-collecting RPG. Its gameplay, while unremarkable – pitting a team of diverse characters against waves of enemies and bosses – is fairly typical of the genre. We've seen this formula countless times.

However, a closer look at the game's promotional materials reveals some…unexpected characters. The marketing features strikingly similar likenesses to well-known figures like Goku, Doraemon, and Tanjiro. Let's just say the likelihood of these appearances being officially licensed is…slim.

The audacity of the blatant rip-offs is almost endearing. It's a refreshing change of pace, a bit like witnessing a fish attempting its first clumsy steps on land. While the unlicensed use of these iconic characters is undeniably brazen, it's also strangely comforting to see such a blatant example of this type of game after a long absence.

This brazen approach contrasts sharply with the many genuinely excellent mobile games currently available. To highlight some of these, let's explore our latest list of top five new mobile games.
