Hero vs Villain — Legacy System

Coming Soon

Players choose between Hero and Villain paths in ITAMI's Legacy system, unlocking unique story quests, perks, and gameplay features depending on their chosen side. Inspired by My Hero Academia's iconic hero-villain dynamic, this system is a defining feature of ITAMI's RPG progression. Full details including all perks, exclusive quests, and path-specific rewards will be documented when the game launches in April 2026.

Confirmed by Roblox API

The game's badge system confirms both paths exist: there are separate “Official Hero” and “Official Villain” badges, earned by completing Hero Exams and Villain Exams respectively. This confirms that the Legacy system involves examination/qualification quests for each path.
