Custom Hero

Everything about the Custom Hero bends to the player's choices. Gender, face, hairstyle, outfit, and even voice are all selectable, and many of the available options nod directly to other figures from the One-Punch Man cast.

As a silent protagonist, the hero rarely speaks beyond simple yes-or-no replies, a design meant to let players project themselves into the story and feel a part of it. Wordless as the character is, they are plainly heroic and ready to lend a hand to fellow heroes.

The Custom Hero starts at level one, feeble and barely able to keep pace with Tiger-level threats, but rises to the maximum level of ninety-nine and into S-Class, finishing as the game's second-strongest fighter behind only Saitama. Their defining trait is versatility, since they can soak up an enormous range of combat styles.

A Standard track pulls moves from figures such as Saitama, Bang, and Garou, including a copy of Saitama's serious punch. A Power track comes from the Tank-Top heroes, a Psychic track from Tatsumaki and Fubuki, and Weapon tracks branch off Metal Bat and Atomic Samurai. Machine tracks either turn the hero into a cyborg or hand them Metal Knight and Child Emperor gear, while a Monster track strips away their humanity and grants powers modeled on Boros, Deep Sea King, and others, though without the ability to transform as those beings do.
