'War Robots: Frontiers' Is Free to Play This Weekend - Trailer

by Rainier on April 21, 2023 @ 8:00 a.m. PDT

War Robots: Frontiers is a multiplayer, third-person mech shooter delivering intense, tactical skirmishes featuring immense, heavily customizable mechs.

Taking place 200 years after the original War Robots, players will battle over a system of worlds called the Wild 10.

Get ready to unleash your fleet of War Robots, engage in epic 6v6 team-based PvP battles, raze battlegrounds beyond the stars, explore a wealth of customization options, and smash through destructible environments.

As the battles rage, the great iron fury of the high powered weapons on the war machines will wreak havoc on the environment as players scramble for control of objectives. Pilots will have to be smart in how they utilize their limited amount of customizable mechs during battles. Will they deploy a swift close-quarters robot that relies on stealth and upclose fire power or deploy devastating ordnance from a distance with heavy cannons and missiles? Especially successful pilots will also be able to unleash their Alpha during the match, a massive machine of death that can turn the tide of any engagement with their overwhelming firepower and tactical abilities.


My.Games is happy to extend an open invitation for gamers worldwide to try out War Robots: Frontiers, a multiplayer mech shooter developed by Pixonic, for free this coming weekend. The game will be available to everyone until April 24 at 11 AM CEST via Steam and MGLauncher.

Frontiers will bring players to a new star system 200 years into the future, alongside a familiar character who is still hanging around from the original War Robots. The above story trailer shows the journey of APPM-3TR (App-mee-tah), who will become players' mentor and guide through the Wild Ten star system in future updates. Where the original War Robots was a war for domination of Earth, War Robots: Frontiers sees players as mercenary Robot Pilots desperately earning their keep while fighting for control of the Wild Ten. Megacorporations have set their sights on these unclaimed planets, and Pilots will need their patronage to secure their livelihoods.

Starting today, players can break into the mayhem of the Wild Ten, free of charge, until April 24 at 11 AM CEST on Steam and via MGLauncher. Players will have access to all of the game’s content throughout the free weekend and can take advantage of up to 33% off Pioneer Packs until April 26 to continue their adventure into the Wild Ten.

Any progress made during the free weekend will carry over when the player buys the Pioneer Packs that not only contain access to the game but also useful in-game items. Pioneers also can participate in the development of the game by trying out new features first and helping the developers by sharing feedback and suggestions on the official Discord server.

When Early Access ends at a later date, the game will become free-to-play (following a progression wipe).

Key Features:

  • FIGHT IN ONLINE PVP BATTLES: Jump in the cockpit of a War Robot, venture to new battlegrounds on distant worlds, and team up with friends for thrilling, fast-paced, 6v6 PvP battles.
  • SMASH UP DESTRUCTIBLE ENVIRONMENTS: Maps will react visibly as battle rages on. Fight enemy War Robots through destructible terrain, and watch as the world and its Robots wear down, crumble, and break.
  • CREATE & CUSTOMIZE WAR ROBOTS: You can build new War Robots and engineer them to battle-ready perfection. Arm your fleet with new weapons, abilities, modules, Robot Pilots, and special cosmetic upgrades!
  • UNLEASH YOUR ALPHA ROBOT: Shoot and smash enemy War Robots to build up your Alpha Power gauge. When it's full, you can unleash your ultimate secret weapon — the Alpha Robot — for maximum damage!

War Robots: Frontiers was built completely from the ground up for modern PC and Consoles using Unreal Engine 5.

A Pioneer pack not only contains access to the game but also contains items for in-game use. Pioneers will be able to participate in the development of the game and try out new features first and help the developers with feedback and suggestions.

Currently available through Steam Early Access, War Robots: Frontiers is coming to PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Steam) in 2023.
