Set across a sprawling intergalactic environment, the War Robots: Frontiers game emphasizes real-time tactics, teamwork, and persistent progression, appealing to fans of both PvP action and mech engineering.

Key Features

Tactical Mech Warfare
Players take the helm of colossal combat robots in team-based matches. Each encounter demands strategic positioning, timing, and cooperation, whether it’s controlling points in “Warp Rush,” surviving in “Last Robot Standing,” or eliminating opponents in “Team Deathmatch.”

Customizable Robots
Mechs can be tailored to suit your gameplay style using an array of legs, torsos, weapons, abilities, and cosmetic options. Whether you prefer a fast, agile scout or a heavily armored tank, you can engineer your robot for optimal performance.

Fully Destructible Environments
From crumbling buildings to blastable barriers, every environment reacts dynamically to combat. Players can use destruction both offensively and defensively, altering the battlefield in real time.

Titan Mechanic
After enough in-game progress during a match, players can deploy “Titans” – massive power-up mechs that dramatically shift the tide of battle with overwhelming firepower.

Dynamic Maps and Worlds
Fights take place across the Wild Ten, a collection of unique planetary environments including ice fields, geothermal facilities, and alien research labs.

Live Seasons and Events
War Robots: Frontiers game features regular content updates with new robots, weapons, cosmetics, and gameplay modes via seasonal events and battle passes.



User Interface

The UI is clean, futuristic, and functional. The main lobby includes sections for robot building, battle modes, social features, and seasonal content. Loadout management is intuitive, allowing drag-and-drop part customization with clear stats displayed.

During battle, the HUD displays weapon cooldowns, ability indicators, and map control status without clutter, ensuring clarity even during chaotic firefights.
