Tencent’s mobile MOBA title Arena of Valor (AoV) has just confirmed a collaboration with Japanese television series Ultraman.
The iconic superhero is coming to Arena of Valor as a hero skin. During the collaboration, players will receive a free Ultraman skin for Florentino while another will be given away for Ryoma through a lucky draw.
In a short video released by Garena, the two skins were showcased, with Florentino as Ultraman and Ryoma as Seven. Scenes from Netflix’s Ultraman adaptation were shown throughout the skin spotlight.
