War Robots collaborates with Kunio Okawara, renowned robot designer.

When it comes to mecha, Japan stands head and shoulders above the rest as pioneers of the genre. They've given us two key iterations, real robot and super robot, cementing their status in the world of anime and gaming. Now, My.Games' War Robots is set to elevate the game by teaming up with the legendary designer Kunio Okawara for an exclusive in-game design!

Okawara's legacy is most notable for his design of the iconic Gundam, created in collaboration with writer Yoshiyuki Tomino. This emblematic figure of the real robot genre has graced numerous series over the decades and even starred in blockbuster Hollywood films like Ready Player One.

Soon, you'll have the chance to pilot an original creation from Kunio Okawara himself—the SWORD Unit 190, developed in-universe by the DSC Corporation. Okawara has gone the extra mile, providing designs for optional drones and plasma guns to enhance your combat capabilities.

Real Steel: You'll need to mark your calendar for the upcoming MECHA Raider S.W.O.R.D event, running from May 20th to June 1st. This event not only introduces the SWORD Unit 190 but also pays homage to the real robot genre, offering a thrilling throwback experience.
